Glazing silicone in Shoreham-by-Sea, done properly
Not every silicone suits glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, finished with a neat, even bead. We work on rooflights, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints, and people most often call us about sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed and stained, discoloured glazing silicone.
In a town like Shoreham-by-Sea, older houses sit alongside newer estates, with windows of every age. All of them depend on a sound bead of mastic between frame and wall.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Shoreham-by-Sea homes and the weather
Shoreham-by-Sea is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary de Haura Church, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you let a flat or house near Shoreham-By-Sea station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Shoreham-by-Sea questions
I let a flat near Shoreham-By-Sea station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Shoreham-by-Sea any different?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
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. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Shoreham-by-Sea and the rest of West Sussex, along with the rest of our area.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes, it’s a common job. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.
Do you work in Shoreham-by-Sea?
Yes, we do. Shoreham-by-Sea is part of the area we cover.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
A top-up rarely holds. The new bead cannot grip the old one so we take it all out and start clean.
Do you need glazing silicone in Shoreham-by-Sea?
Using a sealant not made for glass causes many failures. Not every silicone sticks properly to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
The most common problems we see are:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
If you look after a building such as Buckingham Park Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether the work is at height
- Which sealant suits the joint
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The rough size of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Whether it has been sealed before
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Dealing with a leaking shower screen early protects the floor and ceiling. Water from a failed joint can soak into the floor before you notice. Around Shoreham-by-Sea, failed sealant lets water into hidden places, like the floor under a bath, the back of a panel or the inside of a wall. Left alone, that means rot, damp and a bigger repair.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
