Why deal with it now?
Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Maypole, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What you get with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

- A choice of colours where the product allows
Glazing silicone in Maypole
We work across Maypole on glazing joints for homes and businesses. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job, with a sealant chosen for the joint. If you have water running down inside the glass and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away, we can help, on rooflights, conservatory frames and shower screens alike.
In a village or hamlet like Maypole, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Maypole: your questions answered
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Maypole any different?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are usually the first to need attention.
I let a flat near Herne Bay station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If it’s a broken panel, failed unit or roof problem, we will tell you.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. The old bead always comes out first.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Common problems we fix in Maypole
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hoath Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. It may be sealant, or something else, and we will tell you which.

Glazing silicone in Maypole: local notes
Maypole is within about 3 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you let a flat or house near Herne Bay station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Cross, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
Maypole is about 2 miles south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number and length of the joints
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 any work starts.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The address or postcode of the job
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work.
What we cannot put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass balustrade bases
How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a small place like Maypole, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
