Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Stodmarsh
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks normally come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We work on rooflights, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints, and common reasons people get in touch are drips on the inside of a conservatory window and silicone pulling away from the glass.
Homes in small places like Stodmarsh 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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

When to call us in Stodmarsh
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products don’t bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Water running down inside the glass
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
For landlords with property near Sturry station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below before you spot it.
Can I do it myself?
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Stodmarsh needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Different surfaces, different methods
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Glass-to-frame joints
Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
What happens if it’s left?
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames normally just need resealing, and we’ll tell you if that is not the case. Around Stodmarsh, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Glazing silicone in Stodmarsh: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Goodnestone Park (about 4.4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Stodmarsh has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. If you look after a building such as Wickhambreaux Church of England Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.
