How we handle glazing silicone in Hove
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. Leaks normally come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We work on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and shower screens, and people most often call us about failed sealant around rooflight glass and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray.
In a town like Hove, older houses sit alongside newer estates, with windows of every age. All of them depend on a sound bead of mastic between frame and wall.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
How the job changes by surface
Glass balustrade bases
We reseal the joint where the glass meets the base channel. Glass fitting is a separate trade.
Glass-to-frame joints
The sealant must stick to glass and frame alike. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
How we quote for glazing silicone
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The amount of work
- Which sealant suits the joint
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.
Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Signs you need glazing silicone in Hove
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
In the older streets around Holy Trinity Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In Hove, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Frames and glazing around Hove
Hove is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Historic houses like Preston Manor & Gardens (about 1.3 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Hove 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’s traditional sand mastic.
Schools such as St Andrew's CofE (Aided) Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you let a flat or house near Hove station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
