How we handle glazing silicone in North Street
We do not replace glass, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. What we do is the silicone around the glass and that’s often where the water gets in. Common call-outs are for stained, discoloured glazing silicone and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, across glass-to-glass joints, conservatory frames and rooflights.
In a village or hamlet like North Street, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Street
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Why act early in North Street
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber so early action saves a bigger repair. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like North Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why us?
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Fully insured
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- We agree the colour with you first

What we’re called out for in North Street
Sealant laid over old sealant does not last. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead leaving a path for water.
Look out for any of the following:
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
If you look after a building such as Sheldwich Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
What your quote should include
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What insurance they hold
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether VAT is included
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.
North Street homes and the weather
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens (about 2 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around North Street as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
If you let a flat or house near Faversham station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you live in an older home near Church of St James, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, depending on the amount of work. For a village or hamlet like North Street, 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.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
