How we handle glazing silicone in Rodmersham
Not every silicone suits glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. Typical jobs include silicone pulling away from the glass and leaks from the base of a shower screen, across shower screens, glass-to-frame joints and conservatory frames.
In a village or hamlet like Rodmersham, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Windows and doors in Rodmersham
Rodmersham is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. Schools such as Rodmersham School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.
Your questions about glazing silicone in Rodmersham
Is Rodmersham within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Does the coastal weather in Rodmersham affect outside sealant?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes, it’s a common job. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
New silicone will not bond to old silicone and water gets between the layers. The old bead always comes out first.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we’ll say so.
What does glazing silicone cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.

When to call us in Rodmersham
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking to the glass and frame.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
If you let a flat or house near Sittingbourne station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
