Glazing Silicone in Funtley
Glazing joints in Funtley need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Rooflights
Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We find the cause first.
Glazing silicone in Funtley, done properly
Sealant on glazing doesn’t last for ever. Weather and movement take their toll, and once it cracks, water follows. Resealing puts that right. We work on shower screens, glass-to-glass joints and glass-to-frame joints, and the jobs we see most are a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight.
Homes in small places like Funtley often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.

Common questions in Funtley
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Funtley any different?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Do you cover smaller places like Funtley?
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?
We can, if the base joint is sealed. Send us pictures and we will take a look.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No, our work is the silicone. A glazier replaces glass and units.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Common problems we fix in Funtley
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.
Look out for any of the following:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Water running down inside the glass
Homes close to Church of St Francis include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

What affects the quote in Funtley

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

Windows and doors in Funtley
Funtley is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Orchard Lea Infant School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you let a flat or house near Fareham station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and keep the room ventilated. That slows mould growth on the bead.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a village or hamlet like Funtley, 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 find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
