  • Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)

If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Glazing silicone in Petworth, done properly

Across Petworth, we reseal glazing joints in homes, offices and hotels. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method. If you’re dealing with new silicone smeared over old sealant and water running down inside the glass, we can help, on glass-to-glass joints, glass-to-frame joints and rooflights alike.

Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Petworth is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.

What the job involves on each surface

Glass-to-glass joints

Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.

Glass-to-frame joints

Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The number and length of the joints
  • How easy the joints are to reach

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

What to tell us for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • The rough size of the job
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job.

Frames and glazing around Petworth

With historic houses such as Petworth House (about 0.3 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Petworth 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’s traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Petworth Cof E Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Pulborough station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Can I do it myself?

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.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Petworth, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

When to call us in Petworth

Not every leak is a sealant problem: broken panels, roof problems and blocked gutters can all let water in. That is why we trace the leak first.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • New silicone smeared over old sealant
  • Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
  • Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
  • Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray

Homes close to Sacred Heart Church include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Before you book anyone

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • How the colour is chosen
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Is VAT in the price?

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.

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

Silicone does not stick to silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. We cut out the old sealant first.

Do you reseal glass shower screens?

Yes, we do these often. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone made for wet areas.

What guarantee do I get?

How it works

At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Petworth, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
  4. We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
  5. We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Clear the area around the work
