Questions from Thorpe Green
Do you work for landlords with property near Thorpe-Le-Soken station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Thorpe Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
We can, if the base joint is sealed. Send us pictures and we’ll take a look when you ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If it’s a broken panel, failed unit or roof problem, we will tell you.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Glazing silicone in Thorpe Green, done properly
We don’t replace glass and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. We work on rooflights, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about rooflight joints letting water in and water escaping where a screen meets the wall.
Somewhere as small as Thorpe Green, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Thorpe Green, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

What sealant work can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A roof that has moved or dropped
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Shower screens
- Glass balustrade bases
- Conservatory frames
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing cannot fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly and point you to a glazier or roofer. In a small place like Thorpe Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
What you get with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- Fully insured
- Tidy, careful work

What we’re called out for in Thorpe Green
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out, and water gets between the layers.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
If you let a flat or house near Thorpe-Le-Soken station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
What your quote should include
- How long to leave it before use
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Who turns up on the day

What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Frames and glazing around Thorpe Green
Thorpe Green is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Rolph CofE Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Michael, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
