How we handle glazing silicone in Outwood
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 tell you plainly if the cause is something else. We work on glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints, and people most often call us about new silicone smeared over old sealant and water escaping where a screen meets the wall.
Somewhere as small as Outwood, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Why act early in Outwood
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Older cottages and farmhouses around Outwood can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

- 180+ five-star Google reviews

Common questions in Outwood
I let a flat near Salfords station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Outwood?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
What glazing silicone looks like in Outwood
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you look after a building such as Oakwood School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Salfords station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
Outwood is about 3 miles east of Horley, in Surrey. Outwood gets the same service as everywhere we cover: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee. Our area takes in 395 places across Surrey. There’s also a page for Crawley, roughly 7 miles from Outwood.
Work in RH1 is quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. If you need glazing silicone at a property on Miller's Lane, Bellwether Lane and Scott's Hill or anywhere close by, our applicators can take on the job. Nearby, we also carry out glazing silicone in Smallfield (1 mile south), Horley (3 miles west), Burstow (3 miles south), Fernhill (3 miles south-west) and Keeper's Corner (3 miles south). Larger places within reach include Epsom (12 miles north-west), Redhill (4 miles north-west), Ewell (13 miles north-west), Reigate (5 miles north-west), Caterham (7 miles north) and Dorking (10 miles west).
What’s near Outwood
We work in homes and buildings around The Castle pub, among other places. The nearest railway station is Salfords station, about 2.2 miles west of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Effingham Park Motor Museum (3.7 miles south) and East Surrey Hospital (2.9 miles north-west). For a walk, there’s Bay Pond and Hedgecourt Lake.
What affects the quote in Outwood
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The type of property
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Glass that needs replacing
- Frames that have decayed or split
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass balustrade bases
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-frame joints
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. The work generally takes a few hours for most jobs. For a village or hamlet like Outwood, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- 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 look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Signs you need glazing silicone in Outwood
Not every leak is a sealant problem: failed roof panels, slipped glazing bars and blocked gutters cause them too. That’s why we trace the leak first.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
In the older streets around Church of St John the Baptist, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Before you book anyone
- What preparation is included
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Are they insured?
- When the joint can take water or movement
For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
