Landlords, agents and businesses in Out Elmstead
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Out Elmstead
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. We’re often asked to deal with cracked silicone between glass panels and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away, across shower screens, glass-to-frame joints and conservatory frames.
Somewhere as small as Out Elmstead, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Why act early in Out Elmstead
Leaks get worse, not better. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture, so it pays to deal with it early. In a small place like Out Elmstead, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
Glazing silicone in Out Elmstead: local notes
Historic houses like Goodnestone Park (about 3.6 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Out Elmstead has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. 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 Church of St Giles, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you let a flat or house near Aylesham station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as Barham Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Out Elmstead needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. 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.
- 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.

- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
