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.

Schools such as Rotherfield Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Glazing silicone in Rotherfield

Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Weather and movement take their toll and cracked joints let water in. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. If you are dealing with failed joints on frameless glass and failed sealant around rooflight glass, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

In a village or hamlet like Rotherfield, 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.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

How it works

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere as small as Rotherfield, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
  2. Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
  3. The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
  4. We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
  5. The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Mention any tricky access

Your questions about glazing silicone in Rotherfield

Do you work for landlords with property near Crowborough station?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you cover Rotherfield for glazing silicone?

Yes, Rotherfield is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Can I do it myself?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?

That depends where the water is getting in. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed but roof and panel problems need another trade.

Will it make a mess?

We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The product needed can limit the range.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.

For anyone letting property in or around Rotherfield, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Act on drips or damp patches early
  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Look over the glazing joints once a year
  • Use gentle products around the joints

On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and let the room air. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.

Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below before you spot it.

Why deal with it now?

A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but silicone does not stick to silicone and water soon finds its way back. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. Older cottages and farmhouses around Rotherfield can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

What we’re called out for in Rotherfield

Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Silicone pulling away from the glass
  • Glass-to-glass joints that have split
  • Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
  • Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints

In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Denys, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Honest limits

  • Rotten or badly damaged frames

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Quotes for glazing silicone in Rotherfield

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Access and height
  • When we can work, for business premises

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The rough size of the job
