Glazing silicone for Ferring homes and businesses

DIY versus a professional finish

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Glazing silicone in Ferring

Across Ferring, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. Conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens are all part of the job, with a sealant chosen for the joint. We work on glass balustrade bases, glass-to-frame joints and rooflights, and common reasons people get in touch are water escaping where a screen meets the wall and new silicone smeared over old sealant.

Homes around Ferring range from older properties to newer houses, and their windows range just as widely. Each frame material needs the right sealant against the right wall.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
  • Act on drips or damp patches early
  • Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
  • Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation

Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.

Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.

How the job changes by surface

Glass balustrade bases

Balustrade bases are exposed outdoors. A sound sealant joint keeps them tidy and dry.

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 Ferring

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

  • The product the joint needs
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • How much there is to do
  • Any mould that needs treating

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

What happens on the day

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. A visit to Ferring is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. First, we check where the water gets in.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Related advice

Windows and doors in Ferring

Ferring 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

For landlords with property near Goring-By-Sea station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. Homes close to St Andrew's Church include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Ferring: your questions answered

I let a flat near Goring-By-Sea station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.

Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Ferring any different?

Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.

How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Ferring?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.

How long should I leave it?

It depends on the product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

Can you just put new silicone over the old?

It doesn’t last. The new bead cannot grip the old one so we take it all out and start clean.

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

Generally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we will agree it with you first.

Why deal with it now?

Silicone around glazing needs the right product. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. In an older home around Ferring, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Do you need glazing silicone in Ferring?

UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking to the glass and frame.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
  • Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
  • Mouldy sealant around glass panels
  • Rooflight joints letting water in

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ferring CofE Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
