- Water running down inside the glass
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
About our glazing silicone in Bouldnor
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, and the silicone between them takes the strain. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. If you’re dealing with silicone pulling away from the glass and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Homes in small places like Bouldnor often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere like Bouldnor needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We check which it is.
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.
Quotes for glazing silicone in Bouldnor
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How easy the joints are to reach
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The address or postcode of the job
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
Keep conservatory gutters clear so water does not back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.
FAQs for Bouldnor
Do you work for landlords with property near Lymington Pier station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Does the coastal weather in Bouldnor affect outside sealant?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are usually the first to need attention.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Silicone does not stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. The old bead always comes out first.
Do you work in Bouldnor?
Yes, we do. Our applicators work in Bouldnor.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
All our work has a 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Bouldnor?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Bouldnor
Sealant laid over old sealant does not last. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead, and water gets between the layers.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Yarmouth Church of England Aided Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
Glazing silicone in Bouldnor: local notes
Bouldnor is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. With historic houses such as Mottistone Manor (about 4.4 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Bouldnor as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Letting a property close to Lymington Pier station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. In the older streets around Church of St Swithin (old), frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
