Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Sandway
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. We work on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and shower screens, and common reasons people get in touch are split or lifting silicone on glass and cracked silicone between glass panels.
Around Sandway, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Do you need glazing silicone in Sandway?
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly, the bead can peel away early.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Water running down inside the glass
Schools such as Platts Heath Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Windows and doors in Sandway
With historic houses such as Leeds Castle (about 3.3 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Sandway as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Sandway: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Lenham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Is Sandway within the area you cover?
Yes, Sandway is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes. We remove the old silicone carefully before cleaning and resealing.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?

Where do you work from?
We are based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
Often, if the leak is at a sealant joint. We find where the water gets in first before any sealing.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.

Why it’s worth doing now in Sandway
You do not need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes. Older cottages and farmhouses around Sandway can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.

The visit itself usually takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, depending on the size of the job.
