Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Water running down inside the glass
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Patching
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We find the joint that is letting water in and renew it, and if it’s something sealant cannot fix, we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for black or yellowed silicone on glass joints and drips on the inside of a conservatory window, on shower screens, rooflights and glass balustrade bases.
In a village or hamlet like Patching, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

Glazing silicone in Patching: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much 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 Ecclesden Manor (about 1.5 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Patching 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.
Managing a site like Clapham and Patching CofE Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St John the Divine, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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.
What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere as small as Patching, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Questions from Patching
Will you come out to Patching?
Yes, Patching is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is Patching in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Patching is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
Glass needs a sealant made for glazing. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
How long does glazing silicone take?
Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Patching?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
That depends where the water is getting in. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed but roof and panel problems need another trade.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Leave it or put it right?
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before it shows. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Patching, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
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.
