Glazing silicone in Hipley
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. Typical jobs include glass-to-glass joints that have split and new silicone smeared over old sealant, across rooflights, conservatory frames and glass-to-frame joints.
In a village or hamlet like Hipley, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A broken pane or roof panel
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Conservatory frames
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Glass balustrade bases
- Rooflights
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-frame joints
Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Hipley and across Hampshire. Several sites can be quoted together, and we’re fully insured for the work.

FAQs for Hipley
Is Hipley in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hipley is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Portchester station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed and needs replacing by a glazier.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work has a 12-month guarantee.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
What does glazing silicone cost?
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.
What happens if it’s left?
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. In a small place like Hipley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.

The process
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Hipley, 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.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- 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 previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Hipley homes and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Letting a property close to Portchester station? Then a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Homes close to Church of the Holy Trinity include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. If you look after a building such as Newtown Soberton Infant School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
