How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.
Glass balustrade bases
The base joint is cut out and resealed. We don’t install or replace glass.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Payden Street
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, and the silicone between them takes the strain. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and glass-to-frame joints, and the jobs we see most are leaks from the base of a shower screen and split or lifting silicone on glass.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Payden Street is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Payden Street as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a village or hamlet like Payden Street, 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.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Payden Street homes and the weather
Historic houses like Belmont House and Gardens (about 4.3 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Payden Street has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Homes close to Church of St Margaret include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Managing a site like The Lenham School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Lenham station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix, before water gets in.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Leave it or put it right?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone won’t bond to old, and the leak generally returns. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Payden Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
