Glazing silicone in Brighstone

A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks normally come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. Typical jobs include black or yellowed silicone on glass joints and leaks from the base of a shower screen, across rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and shower screens.

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

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

FAQs for Brighstone

Will you come out to Brighstone?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Does the coastal weather in Brighstone affect outside sealant?

Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.

Do you seal glass balustrade bases?

Yes, we reseal the joint at the base channel. We don’t install or replace the glass.

Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?

All our work has a one-year guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?

No. We renew the sealant. A glazier replaces glass and units.

Is it worth trying it myself?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.

Can tenants book the work?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can I do it myself?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How it works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Brighstone 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.

  1. First, we check where the water gets in.
  2. We remove the old sealant carefully.
  3. The joint is cleaned and degreased.
  4. A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
  5. Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • The size of the job
  • The product the joint needs
  • Whether the work is at height

The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

When to call us in Brighstone

Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould gets into it and the edges begin to peel.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Split or lifting silicone on glass
  • Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
  • Failed sealant around rooflight glass
  • Leaks from the base of a shower screen

If you live in an older home near St. Mary's Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

Glazing silicone in Brighstone: local notes

Brighstone is close to 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. Historic houses like Mottistone Manor (about 1.4 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Brighstone has older buildings as well as new. 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.

If you look after a building such as Brighstone Church of England Aided Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Brighstone is about 6 miles south-west of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Across the PO30 area, our applicators can take on glazing silicone. 125 places in the Isle of Wight are on our list. There’s also a page for Portsmouth, roughly 18 miles from Brighstone.

Leave it or put it right?

Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. In a small place like Brighstone, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
