Glazing silicone in Kentsboro
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Weather and movement take their toll and cracked joints let water in. Resealing puts that right. We work on glass-to-glass joints, shower screens and glass-to-frame joints, and common reasons people get in touch are shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight.
In a village or hamlet like Kentsboro, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

FAQs for Kentsboro
Will you come out to Kentsboro?
Yes. Kentsboro is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Kentsboro in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Kentsboro is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?

Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we are fully insured.
The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Kentsboro, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Which sealant suits the joint
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it has been sealed before
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work.

Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What glazing silicone looks like in Kentsboro
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you let a flat or house near Grateley station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. Around Kentsboro, as everywhere, glazing silicone is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why act early in Kentsboro
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Kentsboro, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
