Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Glazing silicone in Lower Dicker, done properly
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it, and if it’s something sealant cannot fix, we’ll tell you. We are often asked to deal with shower screens leaking along the wall or tray and failed joints on frameless glass, on glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and shower screens.
Somewhere as small as Lower Dicker, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

What else we do in Lower Dicker
Signs you need glazing silicone in Lower Dicker
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products don’t bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
If you look after a building such as Hellingly Community Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Lower Dicker homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Horselunges Manor (about 1.2 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Lower Dicker as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
In the older streets around Zoar Strict Baptist Chapel, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. For landlords with property near Berwick (Sussex) station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Use gentle products around the joints
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet so the silicone can set properly. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours for most jobs.

- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
