Telham Glazing Silicone
Glazing joints in Telham need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
About our glazing silicone in Telham
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. If you’re dealing with water tracking down the inner face of the glass and glass-to-glass joints that have split, we can help.
Around Telham, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Windows and doors in Telham
Historic houses like Durhamford Manor (about 2.4 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Telham has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Managing a site like Claverham Community College? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Letting a property close to Battle station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Telham, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
When to call us in Telham
Not every leak is a sealant problem: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. We find the cause before we seal anything.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
Homes close to Chapel of the Ascension include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.

- When the joint can take water or movement

For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.
What happens if it’s left?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we will tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Telham can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Glass balustrade bases
Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.
Telham: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Battle station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Telham within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes. The old bead comes off without marking the glass before cleaning and resealing.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Glass that needs replacing
- Frames that have decayed or split
