Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Hollington
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. We work on conservatory frames, glass-to-glass joints and rooflights, and common reasons people get in touch are water escaping where a screen meets the wall and water getting into a conservatory at the joints.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Hollington is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Different surfaces, different methods
Conservatory frames
Frame-to-wall joints on a conservatory move with the weather. We reseal them with a sealant suited to the frame.
Rooflights
A rooflight faces rain and sun from above. Its sealant ages faster than vertical joints.

What else we do in Hollington
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Hollington
Sealant laid over old sealant doesn’t last. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead, and water gets between the layers.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
Rented homes near Kintbury station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
What to look for in a quote
- What the cure time is
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Are they insured?
Leave it or put it right?
Topping up old silicone can look like a fix, but silicone does not stick to silicone and water soon finds its way back. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hollington, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Shower screen leaks can go unnoticed. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.

Advice
What glazing silicone looks like in Hollington
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. Historic houses like Stargroves (about 0.8 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Hollington has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
If you look after a building such as St Thomas' Church of England Infant School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Homes close to Church of St Thomas include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
