Saddlescombe Glazing Silicone
Problem with your glazing joints in Saddlescombe? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
Glazing silicone in Saddlescombe, done properly
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. If you’re dealing with new silicone smeared over old sealant and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Saddlescombe, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Saddlescombe and across West Sussex.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. It may be sealant, or something else and we’ll find out which.
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
- How many areas need sealing
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What happens if it’s left?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Saddlescombe, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions from Saddlescombe
Is Saddlescombe within the area you cover?
Yes, Saddlescombe is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is Saddlescombe in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Saddlescombe is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes. We remove the old silicone carefully before cleaning and resealing.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No. We renew the sealant. Glass and sealed units need a glazier.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we are fully insured.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere as small as Saddlescombe, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Saddlescombe homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Portslade Manor (about 3.3 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Saddlescombe 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. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Letting a property close to Hassocks station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
