How we handle glazing silicone in Arreton
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. Typical jobs include shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, across glass-to-frame joints, glass-to-glass joints and shower screens.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Arreton is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Why deal with it now?
Replacing windows or a shower screen isn’t needed for a failed joint. Sound glass and frames usually just need resealing. Older cottages and farmhouses around Arreton can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
What glazing silicone looks like in Arreton
Historic houses like Arreton Manor (about 0.5 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Arreton 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’s traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you let a flat or house near Sandown station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

FAQs for Arreton
Is Arreton within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Sandown station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured for the work.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
Do you need glazing silicone in Arreton?
Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
In the older streets around St. George's Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.
Questions to ask before you book
- Which colour the sealant will be
- The length of the guarantee
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Is VAT in the price?
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Cracked or broken glass
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A roof that has moved or dropped
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
