Glazing silicone in Framfield, done properly
Glass replacement is not something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. We work on rooflights, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and glazing silicone that has cracked or come away.
Around Framfield, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Framfield and across East Sussex.

The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job normally takes a few hours for most jobs, and we explain the cure time before we leave. For a village or hamlet like Framfield, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
When to call us in Framfield
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Failed joints on frameless glass
Rented homes near Uckfield station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
Questions to ask before you book
- How hidden problems are handled
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Is VAT in the price?
- What the cure time is
Leave it or put it right?
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. If the glass and frame are sound, new silicone is often all it takes, and we will tell you if that is not the case. Older cottages and farmhouses around Framfield can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Should I try it myself first?
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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Frames and glazing around Framfield
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.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Thomas à Becket Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. Schools such as Framfield Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

When it isn’t the sealant
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A broken pane or roof panel
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Rooflights
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass balustrade bases
- Conservatory frames
- Glass-to-frame joints
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Use gentle products around the joints
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
FAQs for Framfield

Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
How long before the joint can be used?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Do you seal glass balustrade bases?
Yes. The old sealant is removed and the joint resealed using a sealant that suits the materials.
