Glazing & conservatory sealant in Somerley, West Sussex
Glazing joints in Somerley need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a 12-month guarantee.

- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
About our glazing silicone in Somerley
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. We’re often asked to deal with cracked silicone between glass panels and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, across conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and shower screens.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Somerley is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- A broken pane or roof panel
- Frames that have decayed or split

Signs you need glazing silicone in Somerley
UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
Letting a property close to Fishbourne station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Questions from Somerley
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Fishbourne station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Will you come out to Somerley?
Yes, Somerley is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
We do not replace glass. We look after the sealant joints, and we will tell you if a unit looks like it has failed.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work has a 12-month guarantee.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Why deal with it now?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. In a small place like Somerley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
Why book with us
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- We agree the colour with you first
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the problem grows.
How we quote for glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- When we can work, for business premises
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Where the property is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.
Somerley homes and the weather
Somerley is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you live in an older home near St James' Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Birdham CE Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.
