Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Swanscombe
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks usually come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. We work on glass balustrade bases, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints, and the jobs we see most are shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and stained, discoloured glazing silicone.
In a smaller place like Swanscombe, some walls face open ground and catch the full force of the weather, so exposed windows and doors face the weather head on. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

FAQs for Swanscombe
Do you cover smaller places like Swanscombe?
Yes, Swanscombe is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Greenhithe for Bluewater station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
What does glazing silicone cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.
Is it messy?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No. We renew the sealant. A glazier replaces glass and units.

Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Honest limits
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Where we work in Swanscombe
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Rooflights
Leave it or put it right?
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes, and we’ll tell you if that is not the case. Homes in smaller places like Swanscombe can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before we start.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. The job normally takes a few hours for most jobs, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a smaller place like Swanscombe, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
Signs you need glazing silicone in Swanscombe
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.
Look out for any of the following:
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
Letting a property close to Greenhithe for Bluewater station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What product goes in the joint
- What insurance they hold
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
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.

Glazing silicone in Swanscombe: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Managing a site like Knockhall Primary School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
