Glazing silicone in Hogben's Hill, done properly
Frameless shower screens rely on sealant to keep water in. Leaks generally come from the wall joint or the tray joint, and we reseal both. Typical jobs include conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and a quick top-up bead that didn’t last, on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and glass-to-frame joints.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Hogben's Hill is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Hogben's Hill as everywhere else we work.

Surface by surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
Conservatory frames
The joints where the conservatory meets the house take a lot of movement. They’re resealed with a suitable sealant.
What glazing silicone looks like in Hogben's Hill
With historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens (about 2.9 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Hogben's Hill as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. 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 site and facilities teams at buildings such as Selling Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

Signs you need glazing silicone in Hogben's Hill
UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
If you let a flat or house near Selling station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether VAT is included
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether they’re fully insured
Leave it or put it right?
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. If the leak is a failed sealant joint renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hogben's Hill can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, 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, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Colour agreed with you before any work starts
- Old sealant always removed completely
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing in most cases. Somewhere like Hogben's Hill needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- 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.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Stick to mild cleaners on glass
On shower screens, wipe or squeegee after use and keep the room ventilated. It helps stop mould getting into the silicone.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.
