Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Portmore
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We cut it out and reseal with a glazing silicone suited to the joint. We work on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass balustrade bases, and common reasons people get in touch are water escaping where a screen meets the wall and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed.
Around Portmore, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Frames and glazing around Portmore
Portmore is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. With historic houses such as Beaulieu Palace House (about 4.5 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Portmore 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.
If you live in an older home near Saint Nicholas Chapel, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. Rented homes near Lymington Town station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
Portmore is about 2 miles north-east of Lymington, in Hampshire. Jobs in Portmore get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee.

The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for most jobs. For a village or hamlet like Portmore, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.

Do you need glazing silicone in Portmore?
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Look out for any of the following:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
Schools such as Southlands School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Can I do it myself?
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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Your questions about glazing silicone in Portmore
Do you cover smaller places like Portmore?
Yes, Portmore is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Portmore any different?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Portmore?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we’ll say so.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We renew it without marking the glass.

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. Water can soak into the floor or reach the room below long before you see it.
