Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Blackness is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.

How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Blackness, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Advice
When it is not the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames

Blackness homes and the weather
Blackness 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you live in an older home near St Luke's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you look after a building such as Stone Cross School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
Blackness is about 2 miles north of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. Jobs in Blackness get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. Across East Sussex, we cover 289 places, Blackness among them. Brighton is on our list too, around 18 miles away.

- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Cracked silicone between glass panels

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
How we quote for glazing silicone
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
- Any mould that needs treating
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The type of property
- Photos by email, if that is easy
We don’t publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Blackness questions
Do you cover smaller places like Blackness?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Pevensey & Westham station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we will say so.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Generally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
What does glazing silicone cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
We pick a glazing silicone to suit the materials. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames.
Why act early in Blackness
A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. In a small place like Blackness, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and let the room air. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.
