Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Get a new leak looked at quickly
  • Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
  • Open vents or windows to let moisture out
  • Check the silicone on glass every year or so

Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.

Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Nursling

Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, and the silicone between them takes the strain. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. We’re often asked to deal with a quick top-up bead that didn’t last and water escaping where a screen meets the wall, on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and shower screens.

Houses in smaller places like Nursling can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Nursling and everywhere else we cover.

Why it’s worth doing now in Nursling

Leaks get worse, not better. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture so early action saves a bigger repair. Homes in smaller places like Nursling can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

When to call us in Nursling

Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature, and they don’t move by the same amount. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.

Look out for these signs:

  • Glass-to-glass joints that have split
  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
  • Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame

If you live in an older home near Lord's Hill Church, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Are they insured?
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why

Questions from Nursling

I let a flat near Redbridge station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Is Nursling within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?

Topping up is a common cause of leaks. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before we start.

Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?

All our work has a one-year guarantee.

Do you seal glass balustrade bases?

We can. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint with a suitable product.

Frames and glazing around Nursling

Nursling is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. With historic houses such as South Stoneham House (about 4 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Nursling 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.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Nursling Church of England Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Redbridge station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Surface by surface

Glass-to-glass joints

Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.

Rooflights

We reseal the glazing joints on rooflights. Leaks from the roof itself need a roofer.

DIY versus a professional finish

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, 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 peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

How the visit works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Parking around Nursling is generally 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.

  1. First we agree the joints to be done.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. We clean and prepare the joint.
  4. We apply and tool the new silicone.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Clear the area around the work
