What sealant work cannot fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Glazing silicone in Langney, done properly
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks generally come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We work on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and shower screens, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone pulling away from the glass and rooflight joints letting water in.
In smaller places like Langney, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. Each frame material needs the right sealant against the right wall.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Frames and glazing around Langney
Langney is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. 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.
Letting a property close to Pevensey & Westham station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Langney Primary Academy, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Other services in Langney
Langney: your questions answered
Is Langney within the area you cover?
Yes. Langney is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Langney?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
How long does the job take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes, it’s a common job. We use anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.
Why act early in Langney
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If it’s the roof itself, we will tell you. Around Langney, 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.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What you get with us
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- We agree the colour with you first
Common problems we fix in Langney
Heat and cold make glass and frames move, and they don’t move by the same amount. In time, the sealant splits or pulls away.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
Homes close to St. Richard include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.
What your quote should include
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What product goes in the joint
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How the colour is chosen
What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Parking around Langney 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 check where the water gets in.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us if parking is tricky

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. A failed bead lets water in.
