What glazing silicone looks like in Kingston near Lewes
With historic houses such as Anne of Cleves House (about 1.5 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Kingston near Lewes as well as newer homes. 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Schools such as Iford and Kingston Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

How we handle glazing silicone in Kingston near Lewes

Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Kingston near Lewes is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Catching a split early keeps the repair small.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.

What affects the quote in Kingston near Lewes
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Where the property is
- How we’d reach the joints
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email

DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Cracked or broken glass
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- Frames that have decayed or split
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we seal
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass balustrade bases
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames
- Rooflights
