Windows and doors in Kintbury
Historic houses like Benham Park (about 3.4 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Kintbury has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. 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.
Rented homes near Kintbury station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you look after a building such as Kintbury St Mary's C.E. Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Glazing silicone in Kintbury
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that is suited to glass and the frame, finished with a neat, even bead. If you are dealing with cracked silicone between glass panels and drips on the inside of a conservatory window, we can help, on conservatory frames, shower screens and rooflights alike.
Somewhere as small as Kintbury, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We renew it without marking the glass.
Conservatory frames
Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Wipe the screen down after showering
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. It may be sealant, or something else and we will find out which.
What happens if it’s left?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. Older cottages and farmhouses around Kintbury can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What we’re called out for in Kintbury
New silicone over old silicone will not bond. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out leaving a path for water.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
In the older streets around Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.
