How we handle glazing silicone in Bosham

Across Bosham, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job. If you have water escaping where a screen meets the wall and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, we can help, whatever the surface.

Homes in small places like Bosham often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

What glazing silicone looks like in Bosham

Bosham is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. 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.

For an older house near a landmark such as The United Reformed Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. Managing a site like Bosham Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Bosham station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Bosham is about 3 miles west of Chichester, in West Sussex.

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Surface by surface

Glass-to-frame joints

Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.

Glass balustrade bases

Outdoor balustrade joints face the weather. Renewing the sealant keeps water out of the channel.

Looking after it afterwards

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Get a new leak looked at quickly
  • Open vents or windows to let moisture out
  • Avoid scraping close to the bead
  • Use gentle products around the joints

Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.

Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.

Common questions in Bosham

Do you cover smaller places like Bosham?

Yes. Bosham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bosham 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’ll give you a clear price.

Does someone need to be in?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Will there be a smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Can I do it myself?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.

Do you reseal glass shower screens?

We can. The old bead comes off without marking the glass, and the joints are cleaned and resealed.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

How long should I leave it?

Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.

When something else is needed

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • A broken pane or roof panel

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

What happens on the day

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job for a typical job. In a small place like Bosham, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
  2. Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
  3. We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
  4. Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
  5. The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
