Glazing silicone in Boarhunt, done properly
Glass replacement isn’t something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. If you are dealing with water getting into a conservatory at the joints and rooflight joints letting water in, we can help.
Homes in small places like Boarhunt often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

What we cannot put right
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- Condensation trapped between two panes
- Glass that needs replacing
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

FAQs for Boarhunt
Does living near the coast affect glazing silicone in Boarhunt?
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 Boarhunt?
Yes, Boarhunt is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.
How long does glazing silicone take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Windows and doors in Boarhunt
Boarhunt is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Managing a site like Cams Hill School? Then its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you let a flat or house near Portchester station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

How the job changes by surface
Glass balustrade bases
The base joint is cut out and resealed. We don’t install or replace glass.
Glass-to-frame joints
Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
How the visit works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing in most cases. Somewhere as small as Boarhunt, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Landlords and agents in Boarhunt can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
Do you need glazing silicone in Boarhunt?
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould gets into it and the joint starts to lift.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Water running down inside the glass
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
