How we handle glazing silicone in Totland
Not every silicone suits glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone, which suits glass and most frame materials, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. Typical jobs include new silicone smeared over old sealant and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight, on shower screens, conservatory frames and rooflights.
Around Totland, conservatories, garden rooms and patio doors are often part of the house. Those joints need the same attention as the main windows, and any older timber or sash windows need a sealant that suits them.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we have gone.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
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. All the old material has to come out first.
FAQs for Totland
Does the coastal weather in Totland affect outside sealant?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Will you come out to Totland?
Yes, Totland 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.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone, so a top-up soon lets water through. We cut out the old sealant first.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours for most jobs. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed, and a glazier needs to replace it.
What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, including the tidy-up. A visit to Totland is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Rooflights
- Shower screens
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together.
Frames and glazing around Totland
Totland is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. 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.
Managing a site like St Saviour's Catholic Primary School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Homes close to Christ Church include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Totland is about 5 miles south of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. Totland gets the same service as everywhere we cover: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. Totland is one of 125 towns and villages in the Isle of Wight we cover. For nearby work, see our Southampton page.
Here we cover the PO39 and PO40 postcode area for glazing silicone. If you need glazing silicone at a property on Meadow Barn Close, Ward Road and Weston Road or anywhere close by, we can help.

We also cover Colwell (1 mile north-east), Freshwater (1 mile east), Easton (1 mile east), Norton Green (1 mile north-east) and Afton (1 mile east). We also work in nearby towns such as Newport (11 miles east), Cowes (12 miles north-east), East Cowes (12 miles north-east), Barton (11 miles east), Hunny Hill (11 miles east) and Cross Lane (11 miles east). For island and remote addresses, the job takes a little more planning.
Local landmarks in Totland

Why it’s worth doing now in Totland
A leaking joint will not fix itself. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber so early action saves a bigger repair. In a smaller place like Totland, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

What affects the quote in Totland
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much there is to do
- The number of rooms or windows
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The type of property
- Roughly how big the job is
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when cleaning the glass. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.
