How we handle glazing silicone in Kent Street

We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. We work on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and mouldy sealant around glass panels.

Around Kent Street, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Kent Street as everywhere else we work.

Windows and doors in Kent Street

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Old Soar Manor (about 2.8 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Kent Street has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.

Rented homes near Wateringbury station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. Homes close to St Lawrence's Church include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
  • Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
  • Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh solvents off the silicone

Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.

Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.

When it is not the sealant

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
  • Rotten or badly damaged frames
  • Glass that needs replacing

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we seal

  • Glass balustrade bases

What affects the quote in Kent Street

Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • The amount of work
  • The product the joint needs
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

What we do, step by step

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Kent Street needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
  2. We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
  4. Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
  5. We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.

Glass-to-glass joints

These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.

Glass balustrade bases

Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. A sound sealant joint keeps them tidy and dry.

Common problems we fix in Kent Street

Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould gets into it and the edges begin to peel.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Failed sealant around rooflight glass
  • Leaks from the base of a shower screen
  • Mouldy sealant around glass panels
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant

Schools such as Kings Hill School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
