- The type of property
- What’s wrong with the joints now

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Riverhead
Sealant on glazing does not last for ever. Weather and movement take their toll and cracked joints let water in. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. If you have failed sealant around rooflight glass and a quick top-up bead that didn’t last, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Homes around Riverhead range from older properties to newer houses, and their windows range just as widely. The right sealant depends on the frame and on what it sits in.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Riverhead and across Kent.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
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. Everything old must be removed first.
Landlord and commercial work in Riverhead
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Use gentle products around the joints
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.
Common problems we fix in Riverhead
Not every leak is a sealant problem: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. That is why we trace the leak first.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
If you look after a building such as Amherst School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
What to look for in a quote

Why it’s worth doing now in Riverhead
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. Homes in smaller places like Riverhead can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Why book with us
- We never seal over old sealant
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Colour agreed with you before work begins
- Full insurance on every job

What else we do in Riverhead
What glazing silicone looks like in Riverhead
With historic houses such as Knole House (about 2 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Riverhead as well as newer homes. In older buildings, 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.
Letting a property close to Sevenoaks station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sevenoaks station?

What should I tell you?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
Yes, we reseal the joint at the base channel. We don’t install or replace the glass.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
Glass replacement is not our trade. We reseal the joints around it, and we will tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
