Glazing silicone in Kettle Corner, done properly
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that is suited to glass and the frame, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. Common call-outs are for leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and water running down inside the glass, across rooflights, glass balustrade bases and shower screens.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Kettle Corner is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Kettle Corner as everywhere else we work.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Kettle Corner needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Kettle Corner homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Stoneacre (about 4.7 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Kettle Corner as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Margaret, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you let a flat or house near East Farleigh station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
Conservatory frames
Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What we are called out for in Kettle Corner
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
If you look after a building such as Barming Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.
Why act early in Kettle Corner
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames usually just need resealing. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Kettle Corner, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
