The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Parking in a town like Hailsham is generally straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear the area around the work
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
About our glazing silicone in Hailsham
Sealant on glazing doesn’t last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down, and once it cracks, water follows. Resealing puts that right. We work on glass-to-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and shower screens, and people most often call us about glass-to-glass joints that have split and water tracking down the inner face of the glass.
In a town like Hailsham, the windows on the most exposed side of a house take the brunt of the rain, and that’s normally where the sealant gives up first. Checking every frame, not just the obvious one, is time well spent.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Hailsham questions
What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Hailsham?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
I let a flat near Polegate station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
In many cases, as long as sealant is the cause. We trace the leak first before any sealing.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
What sealant work cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A roof that has moved or dropped
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

- Conservatory frames
For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number of rooms or windows
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- The rough size of the job
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- The address or postcode of the job
- The problem you’ve noticed

How the job changes by surface
Rooflights
Water around a rooflight is not always the sealant. We check which it is.
Glass-to-frame joints
Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
What glazing silicone looks like in Hailsham
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 Horselunges Manor (about 1.5 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Hailsham has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Rented homes near Polegate station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hailsham Community College, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. In the older streets around The Parish Church of Saint Mary, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hailsham
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. Black mould and gaps in sealant do not fix themselves, and in a busy home in Hailsham they get worse with every use. Replacing the sealant now is the simplest fix.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
