Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Hastings Old Town
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks usually come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. We work on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints, and the jobs we see most are failed joints on frameless glass and leaks from the base of a shower screen.
Homes around Hastings Old Town range from older properties to newer houses, and their windows range just as widely. The right sealant depends on the frame and on what it sits in.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

Hastings Old Town questions
Does the coastal weather in Hastings Old Town affect outside sealant?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hastings station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we’ll say so.
Can you match the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before work begins.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Can I do it myself?
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.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
When to call us in Hastings Old Town
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Clement, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Are they insured?
- How hidden problems are handled
- Which colour the sealant will be
Hastings Old Town homes and the weather
Hastings Old Town is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ark Castledown Primary Academy, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Hastings station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Why act early in Hastings Old Town
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant won’t help. We will tell you that rather than seal it anyway, so you can call the right trade. Homes in smaller places like Hastings Old Town can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
What you get with us

How it works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs for a typical job. A visit to Hastings Old Town 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.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The size of the job
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How easy the joints are to reach
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The rough size of the job
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
