Glazing silicone in Kemptown
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. If you’re dealing with conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and split or lifting silicone on glass, we can help, whatever the surface.
In smaller places like Kemptown, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. The right sealant depends on the frame and on what it sits in.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

FAQs for Kemptown
Will you come out to Kemptown?
Yes, Kemptown is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Brighton station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.
How long should I leave it?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
A top-up rarely holds. The new bead can’t grip the old one so we take it all out and start clean.
When something else is needed
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- Condensation trapped between two panes
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

Glazing silicone in Kemptown: local notes
Kemptown 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. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you let a flat or house near Brighton station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
Kemptown is about 1 mile south-east of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. Jobs in Kemptown get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. We cover 30 towns and villages across Brighton and Hove, from the larger towns to small villages.
Postcode districts we cover here for glazing silicone: BN2. Streets in the area include Abbey Road, Manor Road and Eastern Road, all of which we cover. We also cover Whitehawk (1 mile north-east), Carlton Hill (1 mile north-west), Hanover (1 mile north-west), Brighton (1 mile north-west) and West Hill (2 miles north-west). We also work in nearby towns such as Brighton and Hove (3 miles north-west), Hove (3 miles west), Aldrington (3 miles west), Withdean (3 miles north-west), Hangleton (4 miles north-west) and Patcham (4 miles north-west). Being one of Brighton and Hove’s larger places, Kemptown has every kind of property, from flats to offices.
Near you in Kemptown
We work in homes and buildings around St John the Baptist Catholic Primary School, Queen's Park and Saint George's Inn. The closest station to Kemptown is Brighton station, about 1.3 miles north-west of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Brighton Motor Museum (under half a mile south-west) and Churchill Square (1.4 miles west). Green spaces nearby include Newmarket Hill and Whitehawk Hill.
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, depending on the size of the job. Parking around Kemptown is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any tricky access
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Common problems we fix in Kemptown
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Water running down inside the glass
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
In the older streets around St George's Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Leave it or put it right?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. If the leak is a failed sealant joint renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. Around Kemptown, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.
