Glazing silicone in Awbridge

DIY versus a professional finish

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Glazing silicone in Awbridge

Sealant on glazing doesn’t last for ever. Weather and movement take their toll, and once it cracks, water follows. Resealing puts that right. We’re often asked to deal with failed joints on frameless glass and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, on glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and shower screens.

Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Awbridge is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Yes, Awbridge is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Do you work for landlords with property near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?

No. We renew the sealant. Glass and sealed units need a glazier.

Which silicone is used for glass joints?

A neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.

Do the sealants smell?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Where do you work from?

We are a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.

What should I tell you?

Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

When something else is needed

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Frames that have decayed or split
  • Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
  • Cracked or broken glass

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

Windows and doors in Awbridge

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Mottisfont Abbey (about 2 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Awbridge 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.

For landlords with property near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Awbridge Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

For landlords and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

When to call us in Awbridge

Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking to the glass and frame.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
  • Split or lifting silicone on glass
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Water tracking down the inner face of the glass

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Choosing a sealant specialist

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Access and height
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Helping us quote

When you contact us, it’s useful to know:

  • The type of property
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Roughly how big the job is

We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Keeping the joints in good condition

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Stick to mild cleaners on glass
  • Act on drips or damp patches early
  • Squeegee the shower screen after each use
  • Check the silicone on glass every year or so

Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.

Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we’ll tell you which.

What we do, step by step

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a small place like Awbridge, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, we check where the water gets in.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. The joint is cleaned and degreased.
  4. We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

Preparing for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
