Glazing silicone near Priestwood

How we handle glazing silicone in Priestwood

Not every silicone suits glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone that’s suited to glass and the frame, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We work on glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and shower screens, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone pulling away from the glass and water running down inside the glass.

In a village or hamlet like Priestwood, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Priestwood questions

Can you do glazing silicone in Priestwood?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Priestwood is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sole Street station?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Do I have to be there?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Why not top up the existing silicone?

New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. The old bead always comes out first.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Priestwood.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.

How long before the joint can be used?

That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you.

Which silicone is used for glass joints?

Glass needs a sealant made for glazing. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone with anti-fungal products in bathrooms.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get a new leak looked at quickly
  • Use gentle products around the joints
  • Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
  • Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation

Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and keep the room ventilated. That slows mould growth on the bead.

Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.

Frames and glazing around Priestwood

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Cobham College (about 2.6 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Priestwood has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.

If you live in an older home near Church of Our Lady of the Meadow, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you look after a building such as Meopham School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Priestwood is about 5 miles south of Gravesend, in Kent. Wherever you are in the DA13 postcode area, our applicators can take on glazing silicone. Priestwood is one of 922 places in Kent we cover for glazing silicone. For nearby work, see our London page.

For landlords and businesses

Common problems we fix in Priestwood

Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
  • Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
  • Split or lifting silicone on glass
  • Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight

Rented homes near Sole Street station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try it myself first?

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Why deal with it now?

Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before you notice. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Priestwood, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.

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 work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing from start to finish. In a small place like Priestwood, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. The joint is cleaned and degreased.
  4. A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

Preparing for the visit

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
