Glazing silicone in Postling Green, done properly
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, 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. We’re often asked to deal with failed joints on frameless glass and leaks from the base of a shower screen, across glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and conservatory frames.
Homes in small places like Postling Green often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Postling Green and across Kent.

What glazing silicone looks like in Postling Green
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. With historic houses such as Westenhanger Castle (about 3.2 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Postling Green as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Martin, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Letting a property close to Westenhanger station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you look after a building such as Aldington Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere as small as Postling Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

What affects the quote in Postling Green
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Shower screens
- Glass balustrade bases
Why act early in Postling Green
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Postling Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, 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 not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Common questions in Postling Green

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can you do glazing silicone in Postling Green?

Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?

How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
It does not last. Fresh silicone won’t bond to cured silicone so we take it all out and start clean.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
