How we quote for glazing silicone
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Access and height
- The type of sealant required
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you are ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Glazing silicone in Bitterne Park, done properly
Not every silicone suits glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone that is suited to glass and the frame, finished with a neat, even bead. Common call-outs are for leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and split or lifting silicone on glass, on glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and shower screens.
Many houses in smaller places like Bitterne Park have conservatories, garden rooms or patio doors. Those joints need the same attention as the main windows.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How the visit works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours for most jobs, depending on the amount of work. In a smaller place like Bitterne Park, 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.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

When something else is needed
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:
- Glass that needs replacing
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Rooflights
- Conservatory frames
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Windows and doors in Bitterne Park
Bitterne Park is within about 3 miles 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 South Stoneham House (about 0.9 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Bitterne Park as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of Ascension, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Schools such as St Mary's Independent School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
Bitterne Park is about 1 mile east of Southampton, in Southampton.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.
Questions from Bitterne Park
Do you cover smaller places like Bitterne Park?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Does the coastal weather in Bitterne Park affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes, it’s a common job. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you need glazing silicone in Bitterne Park?
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased, the bead can peel away early.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
Letting a property close to Bitterne station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
