Glazing silicone in Hedge End
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We find the joint that is letting water in and renew it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. We work on glass balustrade bases, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints, and common reasons people get in touch are drips on the inside of a conservatory window and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed.
Hedge End mixes older streets, where windows have often been replaced, with newer estates fitted with uPVC. All of them depend on a sound bead of mastic between frame and wall.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Glazing silicone in Hedge End: local notes
With historic houses such as South Stoneham House (about 3.5 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Hedge End as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Evangelist, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Shamblehurst Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Hedge End station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Different surfaces, different methods
Glass balustrade bases
We reseal the joint where the glass meets the base channel. Glass fitting is a separate trade.
Rooflights
We reseal the glazing joints on rooflights. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Cracked or broken glass
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Glass-to-frame joints

- Shower screens
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
How the visit works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself generally takes a few hours for most jobs, depending on the size of the job. In Hedge End, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and let us know if the work is upstairs, in a flat or up high outside.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Can you do glazing silicone in Hedge End?

I let a flat near Hedge End station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Hedge End?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing by a glazier.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
It depends on the cause. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed but roof and panel problems need another trade.

- The size of the job
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, these details help:

Leave it or put it right?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but new silicone will not bond to old, and the leak generally returns. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. Draughts from a gap round a frame, damp under a sill or water behind a bath panel all start small, and they’re far easier to fix early.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
