What the job involves on each surface
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that’s often finished with sealant. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Snoll Hatch
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We are often asked to deal with failed sealant around rooflight glass and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away, across rooflights, shower screens and glass balustrade bases.
In a village or hamlet like Snoll Hatch, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What we’re called out for in Snoll Hatch
Not every leak is a sealant problem: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. That’s why we trace the leak first.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
If you look after a building such as East Peckham Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before you book
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How hidden problems are handled
- Are they insured?
What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Snoll Hatch, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear the area around the work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Windows and doors in Snoll Hatch
With historic houses such as Old Soar Manor (about 4.5 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Snoll Hatch as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Trinity, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. For landlords with property near Beltring station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

What affects the quote in Snoll Hatch
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- The rough size of the job
- The address or postcode of the job
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Do not leave a drip for the next storm
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
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.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
