Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Puddledock
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 cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. If you have a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and rooflight joints letting water in, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Puddledock, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Do you work for landlords with property near Swanley station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Puddledock in your area for glazing silicone?

Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
What does glazing silicone cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes, we reseal the joint at the base channel. We don’t install or replace the glass.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
How the job changes by surface
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.
Glass-to-frame joints
Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. A failed bead lets water in.
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Glazing silicone in Puddledock: local notes
Historic houses like Hall Place and Gardens (about 2.2 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Puddledock 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 is traditional sand mastic. 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.
Rented homes near Swanley station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. For an older house near a landmark such as St Peter, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Managing a site like Hextable Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.
