Glazing silicone in Fairlee
We work across Fairlee on glazing joints for homes and businesses. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job, with a sealant chosen for the joint. We’re often asked to deal with water tracking down the inner face of the glass and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, across glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and shower screens.
In a village or hamlet like Fairlee, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Glazing silicone in Fairlee: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Carisbrooke Castle (about 1.9 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Fairlee has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Paul's Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

What we are called out for in Fairlee
Some conservatory leaks aren’t sealant at all: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. We find the cause before we seal anything.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Rooflight joints letting water in
Managing a site like Medina College? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

FAQs for Fairlee
Is there a guarantee on glazing silicone in Fairlee?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Fairlee within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
Yes. The old sealant is removed and the joint resealed with a suitable product.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Many leaks we see come from exactly that. We remove the old silicone, clean the joint and reseal.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we will say so.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Use gentle products around the joints
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most jobs, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Fairlee, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.

Before we arrive

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Rooflights
We reseal the glazing joints on rooflights. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
