Why act early in St Leonards
A leaking joint won’t fix itself. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. Around St Leonards, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in St Leonards
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, and the silicone between them takes the strain. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We’re often asked to deal with silicone pulling away from the glass and glass-to-glass joints that have split, on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in St Leonards is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like St Leonards needs a little journey planning: 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.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any tricky access
- Move anything stored near the joints

Questions from St Leonards
Will you come out to St Leonards?
Yes, St Leonards is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is St Leonards in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, St Leonards is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
It doesn’t last. The new bead cannot grip the old one, so we remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
In many cases, as long as sealant is the cause. We trace the leak first, so you know what you are paying for.
How long should I leave it?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before we start.
St Leonards homes and the weather
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. With historic houses such as Cholesbury Manor House (about 1.1 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around St Leonards 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.
In the older streets around Church of St Leonard, 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 Wendover station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
