How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. A visit to Abbotts Barton 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.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Glazing silicone in Abbotts Barton, done properly
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass spoils the look and lets water in. It comes off cleanly, without marking the glass and reseal the joint. Common call-outs are for drips on the inside of a conservatory window and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, across rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and shower screens.
Homes around Abbotts Barton range from older properties to newer houses, and their windows range just as widely. The right sealant depends on the frame and on what it sits in.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What glazing silicone looks like in Abbotts Barton
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you let a flat or house near Winchester station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Schools such as St Bede Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould gets into it and the joint starts to lift.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
For an older house near a landmark such as St Bartholomew's Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
What happens if it’s left?
You don’t need new glazing because the sealant has gone. Sound glass and frames normally just need resealing. In an older home around Abbotts Barton, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Abbotts Barton questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Winchester station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover smaller places like Abbotts Barton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
How much does glazing silicone cost in Abbotts Barton?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Catching a split early keeps the repair small.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.
