DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How we handle glazing silicone in Lyminge
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and glass balustrade bases, and the jobs we see most are failed sealant around rooflight glass and split or lifting silicone on glass.
In a village or hamlet like Lyminge, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Quotes for glazing silicone in Lyminge
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many areas need sealing
- The type of sealant required
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- If someone has resealed it before
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
The process
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for most jobs. For a village or hamlet like Lyminge, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. It may be sealant, or something else and we will find out which.

Why deal with it now?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. In a small place like Lyminge, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Different surfaces, different methods
Rooflights
Water around a rooflight isn’t always the sealant. We check which it is.
Glass-to-frame joints
Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
What we can’t put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A roof that has moved or dropped
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Can you work on commercial sites?

That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Frames and glazing around Lyminge
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Acrise Place (about 2.1 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Lyminge has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Lyminge Church of England Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Historic houses such as Acrise Place, about 2.1 miles east, show how far back building around Lyminge goes. Rented homes near Sandling station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
