Glazing Silicone in Old Romney

Glazing silicone in Old Romney, done properly
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, and the silicone between them takes the strain. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. If you are dealing with failed joints on frameless glass and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, we can put it right, on rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and glass-to-glass joints alike.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Old Romney is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Old Romney, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
How to get a quote
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- A broken pane or roof panel
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass balustrade bases
- Conservatory frames
- Shower screens
Different surfaces, different methods
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. Leaks from the roof itself need a roofer.
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. We reseal them with a sealant suited to the frame.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Old Romney and across Kent. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Old Romney
Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased the sealant may lift within a few years.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
Letting a property close to Appledore (Kent) station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Glazing silicone in Old Romney: local notes
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.
If you look after a building such as The Marsh Academy, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Clement, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
