Glazing silicone in Vigo Village
Sealant on glazing doesn’t last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. We’re often asked to deal with rooflight joints letting water in and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, across conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and shower screens.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Vigo Village is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Different surfaces, different methods
Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We find the cause first.
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We renew it without marking the glass.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
Keep conservatory gutters clear so water does not back up against the seals. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
What we do, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job from start to finish. Somewhere as small as Vigo Village, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

When to call us in Vigo Village
Some conservatory leaks are not sealant at all: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. That’s why we trace the leak first.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
Managing a site like Vigo Village School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

What glazing silicone looks like in Vigo Village
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Cobham College (about 4.4 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Vigo Village as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Letting a property close to Borough Green & Wrotham station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Leave it or put it right?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. In a small place like Vigo Village, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
