It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Water running down inside the glass
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
If you live in an older home near Church of St Laurence, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

Glazing silicone in Pegwell
We don’t replace glass and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. What we do is the silicone around the glass, which is where many leaks start. We work on glass-to-glass joints, conservatory frames and rooflights, and people most often call us about shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and water tracking down the inner face of the glass.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Pegwell is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. For a village or hamlet like Pegwell, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Questions from Pegwell
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ramsgate station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Does the coastal weather in Pegwell affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
How long before the joint can be used?
Cure times vary by product. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
Do you come to Pegwell?
Yes, we do. Pegwell is part of the area we cover.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.

Windows and doors in Pegwell
Pegwell 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. Historic houses like Quex Park (about 4.2 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Pegwell 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.
Managing a site like Chilton Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Ramsgate station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

What affects the quote in Pegwell
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How much there is to do
- Access and height
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many areas need sealing
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The type of property
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
To get a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We will send you a clear quote before any work starts.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Frames that have decayed or split
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass balustrade bases
- Conservatory frames
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Rooflights
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Wipe the screen down after showering
Check the joints once a year. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below before you spot it.
Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We remove the failed sealant and renew it.
Glass-to-frame joints
We cut the old silicone from the glass without scratching it and reseal with glazing silicone.
