How we quote for glazing silicone

- Any mould that needs treating
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- The address or postcode of the job

Glazing silicone in Parkhurst, done properly
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks usually come from the wall joint or the tray joint and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. We’re often asked to deal with split or lifting silicone on glass and black or yellowed silicone on glass joints, on shower screens, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-frame joints.
Somewhere as small as Parkhurst, 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.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Common problems we fix in Parkhurst
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
Schools such as Hunnyhill Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How long to leave it before use
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Which colour the sealant will be
What glazing silicone looks like in Parkhurst
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Carisbrooke Castle (about 2.1 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Parkhurst as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Carisbrooke Castle, about 2.1 miles south, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Parkhurst, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
Glass-to-frame joints
Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
Parkhurst: your questions answered
Is Parkhurst within the area you cover?
Yes. Parkhurst is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is glazing silicone in Parkhurst guaranteed?
All our work, in Parkhurst and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
We can. We cut out the failed sealant and reseal the base joint with a suitable product.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
Glass replacement is not our trade. We reseal the joints around it and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure silicone is the usual choice, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
Why deal with it now?
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. Older cottages and farmhouses around Parkhurst can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Parkhurst, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any tricky access
