DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Aldrington
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. We work on shower screens, glass-to-frame joints and rooflights, and the jobs we see most are leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and new silicone smeared over old sealant.
In smaller places like Aldrington, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. Each frame material needs the right sealant against the right wall.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Aldrington and everywhere else we cover.

What else we do in Aldrington
Aldrington homes and the weather
Aldrington is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. With historic houses such as Portslade Manor (about 1.4 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Aldrington 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.
Homes close to St Philip's Church include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Letting a property close to Portslade station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Why it’s worth doing now in Aldrington
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. In a smaller place like Aldrington, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a smaller place like Aldrington, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Before we arrive

Advice
Aldrington questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Portslade station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Aldrington?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
How long does glazing silicone take?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee covers every job.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we are fully insured.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
It depends on the cause. Sealant joints we can renew but roof and panel problems need another trade.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Aldrington
Some conservatory leaks aren’t sealant at all: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. We find the cause before we seal anything.
Look out for any of the following:
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Water running down inside the glass
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
Managing a site like Hove Junior School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
