About our glazing silicone in Tenterden
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Sun, rain and movement wear it down and cracked joints let water in. Resealing puts that right. We work on shower screens, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-frame joints, and common reasons people get in touch are conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and failed sealant around rooflight glass.
In a smaller place like Tenterden, 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 there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Condensation trapped between two panes

What we seal
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Glass balustrade bases
- Rooflights
- Conservatory frames
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
How it works
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Parking around Tenterden is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- 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.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Access and height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How many areas need sealing
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before we start.

Windows and doors in Tenterden
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. With historic houses such as Smallhythe Place (about 2.2 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Tenterden as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
If you live in an older home near Parish Church of St Mildred, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Tenterden Infant School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Conservatory frames
Exposed frame joints wear with the weather. Renewed sealant keeps water out.
