About our glazing silicone in Stubb's Cross
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass looks poor and can leak. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass before the new bead goes in. If you’re dealing with new silicone smeared over old sealant and mouldy sealant around glass panels, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Stubb's Cross is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now

When to call us in Stubb's Cross
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’re asked about most:
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
Letting a property close to Ashford International station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

What else we do in Stubb's Cross
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Stubb's Cross?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
Frames and glazing around Stubb's Cross
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 Godinton House (about 3.3 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Stubb's Cross 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Kingsnorth Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For an older house near a landmark such as St Francis, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
