What affects the quote in South Street
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether the work is at height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number and length of the joints
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The address or postcode of the job
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job.
Glazing silicone in South Street
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. If you have failed joints on frameless glass and new silicone smeared over old sealant, we can help, on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-frame joints alike.
Around South Street, 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

South Street: your questions answered
Is South Street within the area you cover?
Yes. South Street is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do glazing silicone in South Street?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and South Street is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
Glass needs a sealant made for glazing. Ours is a neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
Many leaks we see come from exactly that. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
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.
Why deal with it now?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone won’t bond to old, and the leak normally returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like South Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Glazing silicone in South Street: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Letting a property close to Plumpton station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Homes close to The Parish Church of St Peter include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

What else we do in South Street
Do you need glazing silicone in South Street?
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.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
Managing a site like Chailey School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job.

- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Keep conservatory gutters clear so water does not back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water runs along frames and down walls, so get it looked at when you first see it.
