What affects the cost of glazing silicone
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The number of rooms or windows
- Which sealant suits the joint
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- The problem you’ve noticed
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the job is, and your postcode
We do not publish a price list. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Glazing silicone in Kingsnorth, done properly
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We work on conservatory frames, glass-to-frame joints and shower screens, and the jobs we see most are new silicone smeared over old sealant and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away.
Homes in small places like Kingsnorth often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kingsnorth
A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. Older cottages and farmhouses around Kingsnorth can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a village or hamlet like Kingsnorth, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
When it is not the sealant
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- Condensation trapped between two panes
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Kingsnorth questions
Do you cover smaller places like Kingsnorth?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Gillingham (Kent) station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work has a one-year guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Do you replace glass?
That’s not something we do. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed, and a glazier needs to replace it.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Frames and glazing around Kingsnorth
Kingsnorth is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Letting a property close to Gillingham (Kent) station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as The Hundred of Hoo Academy, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
