Glass-to-frame joints
Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
Conservatory frames
Frame joints face sun and rain all year. Renewed sealant keeps water out.
About our glazing silicone in Nettlestone
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks generally come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. We work on shower screens, rooflights and glass-to-frame joints, and people most often call us about cracked silicone between glass panels and water getting into a conservatory at the joints.
Homes in small places like Nettlestone 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can go on one quote.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.
What we are called out for in Nettlestone
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Some products don’t bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Nettlestone Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re on site, 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. Somewhere as small as Nettlestone, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

How we quote for glazing silicone
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Mould in or behind the old joints
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
Helping us quote

- The type of property
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The rough size of the job

Why it’s worth doing now in Nettlestone
Leaks get worse, not better. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture so early action saves a bigger repair. In a small place like Nettlestone, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before any work starts.
Why book with us
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- Colour agreed with you before any work starts

Nettlestone homes and the weather
Nettlestone is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In the older streets around St. Helen's Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. For landlords with property near Smallbrook Junction station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
