About our glazing silicone in Sellindge
Sealant on glazing doesn’t last for ever. Weather and movement take their toll and cracked joints let water in. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. We work on glass balustrade bases, rooflights and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and drips on the inside of a conservatory window.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Sellindge is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Sellindge, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the property is
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. It may be sealant, or something else and we’ll find out which.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
When it is not the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A broken pane or roof panel
- Condensation trapped between two panes
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Windows and doors in Sellindge
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Westenhanger Castle (about 1.4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Sellindge 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.
Letting a property close to Westenhanger station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. In the older streets around Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Sellindge Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
