Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Shover's Green
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, and the silicone between them takes the strain. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. We work on shower screens, conservatory frames and glass balustrade bases, and people most often call us about glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed.
Homes in small places like Shover's Green often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
How we quote for glazing silicone
You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Access and height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What’s wrong with the joints now
We quote each job on its own. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details and send photos if you have them.

Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
Conservatory frames
Exposed frame joints wear with the weather. A fresh bead seals them again.
How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a village or hamlet like Shover's Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. Around Shover's Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Glazing silicone in Shover's Green: local notes
Historic houses like Wadhurst Castle (about 1.6 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Shover's Green has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For an older house near a landmark such as Shover's Green Baptist Chapel, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you let a flat or house near Stonegate station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you look after a building such as Uplands Community College, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Shover's Green: your questions answered
Is Shover's Green within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Stonegate station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
We pick a glazing silicone to suit the materials. Neutral-cure silicone is the usual choice, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Shover's Green?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
Many leaks we see come from exactly that. We remove the old silicone, clean the joint and reseal.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
