Glazing silicone near Aldingbourne

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Check the silicone on glass every year or so
  • Do not leave a drip for the next storm
  • Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
  • Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth

On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and let the room air. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.

Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.

About our glazing silicone in Aldingbourne

Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away looks poor and can leak. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass before the new bead goes in. Typical jobs include drips on the inside of a conservatory window and failed joints on frameless glass, on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames.

Somewhere as small as Aldingbourne, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Honest limits

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
  • Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
  • Glass that needs replacing

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we seal

  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Shower screens
  • Conservatory frames
  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Rooflights

How the visit works

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a small place like Aldingbourne, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
  2. The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
  3. The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
  5. We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Related advice

Different surfaces, different methods

Glass-to-frame joints

Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.

Glass balustrade bases

The base joint is cut out and resealed. We don’t install or replace glass.

Why it’s worth doing now in Aldingbourne

A leaking joint will not fix itself. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Aldingbourne, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will talk you through it.

Aldingbourne: your questions answered

Do you cover Aldingbourne for glazing silicone?

Yes, Aldingbourne is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Is Aldingbourne within the area you cover?

Yes, Aldingbourne is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

How long does glazing silicone take?

A typical job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Which products do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Why not top up the existing silicone?

New silicone won’t bond to old silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Do I have to be there?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

What affects the quote in Aldingbourne

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

We do not publish a price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Windows and doors in Aldingbourne

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. Historic houses like Goodwood House (about 3.2 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Aldingbourne has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.

Homes close to The Parish Church of St Mary include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. If you look after a building such as Aldingbourne Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

When to call us in Aldingbourne

Some conservatory leaks aren’t sealant at all: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. We find the cause before we seal anything.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
  • Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Water running down inside the glass

Letting a property close to Barnham station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
