About our glazing silicone in Willingdon
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points, and we reseal both. If you have water getting into a conservatory at the joints and silicone pulling away from the glass, we can put it right, on shower screens, rooflights and conservatory frames alike.
In a village or hamlet like Willingdon, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Willingdon and everywhere else we cover.

What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Willingdon, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any tricky access

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What glazing silicone looks like in Willingdon
Willingdon is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. With historic houses such as Alfriston Clergy House (about 4.2 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Willingdon as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
Rented homes near Hampden Park station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in.

Common problems we fix in Willingdon
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
If you look after a building such as Oakwood Primary Academy, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Landlord and commercial work in Willingdon
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.
Surface by surface
Rooflights
Rooflights get the full force of the weather. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so a straight, even finish matters.
Why deal with it now?
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant will not help. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. In a small place like Willingdon, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

How much does glazing silicone cost in Willingdon?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you reseal glass shower screens?
Yes. The old bead comes off without marking the glass, and the joints are cleaned and resealed.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
