Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
How we handle glazing silicone in Woodchurch
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. We work on glass-to-frame joints, shower screens and glass balustrade bases, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Woodchurch is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass balustrade bases
The base of a glass balustrade is generally sealed. Failed sealant there lets water collect.
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.

What else we do in Woodchurch
Frames and glazing around Woodchurch
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. Historic houses like Smallhythe Place (about 4.2 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Woodchurch 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.
If you let a flat or house near Appledore (Kent) station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Managing a site like Woodchurch Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Woodchurch can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Common problems we fix in Woodchurch
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature, and they don’t move by the same amount. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Failed joints on frameless glass
If you live in an older home near Parish Church of All Saints, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Common questions in Woodchurch
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Appledore (Kent) station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you cover smaller places like Woodchurch?
Yes. Woodchurch is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
In many cases, as long as sealant is the cause. We trace the leak first before any sealing.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Woodchurch?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Condensation trapped between two panes
- Frames that have decayed or split
- A broken pane or roof panel
