Surface by surface
Glass balustrade bases
The base of a glass balustrade is normally sealed. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
Glazing silicone in Boxgrove
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, and the silicone between them takes the strain. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. If you are dealing with rooflight joints letting water in and cracked silicone between glass panels, we can put it right.
Around Boxgrove, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Advice
What happens if it’s left?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. In a small place like Boxgrove, 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 size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

What we are called out for in Boxgrove
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Water running down inside the glass
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
Letting a property close to Chichester station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

What sealant do you use on glazing?

Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No. We renew the sealant. A glazier replaces glass and units.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas 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.
Frames and glazing around Boxgrove
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Goodwood House (about 1.5 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Boxgrove as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
In the older streets around The Priory Church of St Mary and St Blaize, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Schools such as Boxgrove CofE Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
What to tell us for a quote

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. It may be sealant, or something else and we’ll find out which.
