Glazing silicone in East Dean
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. Typical jobs include water running down inside the glass and glass-to-glass joints that have split, on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and glass-to-frame joints.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around East Dean is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

East Dean questions
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in East Dean?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Do you work for landlords with property near Eastbourne station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover East Dean?
Yes, we do. Our applicators work in East Dean.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
Yes. The sealant joint at the base can be renewed. Fitting glass is a separate trade.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
Glass replacement isn’t our trade. We look after the sealant joints, and we will tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. In a small place like East Dean, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

Related advice
Windows and doors in East Dean
East Dean is close to 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. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you let a flat or house near Eastbourne station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

When to call us in East Dean
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased, the bead can peel away early.
Look out for any of the following:
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Simon and St Jude, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.
Before booking anyone
- What product goes in the joint
- How long to leave it before use
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
What happens if it’s left?
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames generally just need resealing, and we’ll tell you if that is not the case. Around East Dean, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Different surfaces, different methods
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.
Glass-to-frame joints
Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
