West Town: your questions answered
Will you come out to West Town?
Yes. West Town 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.
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in West Town?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is balustrade sealant something you do?
Yes. The sealant joint at the base can be renewed. Fitting glass is a separate trade.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Do you replace glass?
No, our work is the silicone. A glazier replaces glass and units.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
About our glazing silicone in West Town
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. Common call-outs are for leaks from the base of a shower screen and split or lifting silicone on glass, on shower screens, glass-to-frame joints and rooflights.
In smaller places like West Town, homes range from older cottages to newer houses, with windows to match: timber, uPVC and aluminium. Each frame material needs the right sealant against the right wall.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Surface by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
When to call us in West Town
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased the sealant may lift within a few years.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Rooflight joints letting water in
Letting a property close to Fratton station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long to leave it before use
- What happens if the job turns out different
- The length of the guarantee

Frames and glazing around West Town
West Town 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. Historic houses like Warblington Castle (about 3.9 miles north) are a reminder that the area around West Town has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary's Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. Managing a site like Mengham Infant School? Then the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

How it works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Parking around West Town is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- We apply and tool the new silicone.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any tricky access
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

What affects the quote in West Town
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- How many areas need sealing
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Access and height
- The number and length of the joints
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Where the property is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Whether it has been sealed before
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Do not use blades or scrapers near the bead when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.
