Glazing silicone in Sutton at Hone

Windows and doors in Sutton at Hone

Historic houses like Lullingstone Castle (about 3.9 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Sutton at Hone 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. 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.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Sutton-At-Hone Church of England Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St John the Baptist, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Sutton at Hone

Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone that’s suited to glass and the frame, finished with a neat, even bead. We work on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are water getting into a conservatory at the joints and mouldy sealant around glass panels.

Somewhere as small as Sutton at Hone, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.

Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
  • Get a new leak looked at quickly
  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth

Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.

If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.

Different surfaces, different methods

Conservatory frames

Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.

Glass balustrade bases

The base of a glass balustrade is generally sealed. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.

Your questions about glazing silicone in Sutton at Hone

Do the sealants smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.

Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?

Yes. We remove the old silicone carefully, and the joints are cleaned and resealed.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

How long will you be here?

That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. We will tell you when we quote.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Sutton at Hone, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
  2. Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
  3. The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
  4. We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
  5. The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Signs you need glazing silicone in Sutton at Hone

Silicone won’t bond to a dirty surface. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased the sealant may lift within a few years.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
  • Failed sealant around rooflight glass
  • Silicone pulling away from the glass
  • Leaks from the base of a shower screen

For landlords with property near Farningham Road station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

  • Failed flashing around a conservatory

DIY versus a professional finish

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
