DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
About our glazing silicone in The Stocks
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. If you’re dealing with glazing silicone that has cracked or come away and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, we can help.
Around The Stocks, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Why act early in The Stocks
Leaks get worse, not better. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture, so it pays to deal with it early. Older cottages and farmhouses around The Stocks can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

Common problems we fix in The Stocks
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Water running down inside the glass
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St John the Baptist, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What else we do in The Stocks
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
What affects the quote in The Stocks
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The size of the job
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The address or postcode of the job
- The rough size of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with straight away.
The Stocks homes and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Smallhythe Place (about 2 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around The Stocks 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.
Managing a site like Wittersham Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Letting a property close to Rye station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs in most cases. In a small place like The Stocks, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
