About our glazing silicone in Nettlestead Green
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks generally come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you are dealing with shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and silicone pulling away from the glass, we can put it right, on conservatory frames, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints alike.
Homes in small places like Nettlestead Green often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Conservatory frames
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Shower screens
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass balustrade bases
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. It usually takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Nettlestead Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Why act early in Nettlestead Green
A new conservatory roof is a big job. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Nettlestead Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Common questions in Nettlestead Green
Is Nettlestead Green in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Nettlestead Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Nettlestead Green?
Yes, Nettlestead Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No, our work is the silicone. A glazier replaces glass and units.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
Many leaks we see come from exactly that. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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, then guaranteed for a year.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and let the room air. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.
Different surfaces, different methods
Glass balustrade bases
The base joint is cut out and resealed. Glass fitting is a separate trade.
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Frames and glazing around Nettlestead Green
With historic houses such as Old Soar Manor (about 4.3 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Nettlestead Green as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. 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.
Letting a property close to Yalding station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you live in an older home near St Mary's Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
