Hookwood Glazing Silicone
Glazing silicone for Hookwood and the surrounding area: careful preparation, the right product and tidy work. Ask us for a quick quote.
- Failed joints on frameless glass
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
Should I try it myself first?
If you’re 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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How we handle glazing silicone in Hookwood
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Weather and movement take their toll and cracked joints let water in. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. If you are dealing with glass-to-glass joints that have split and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, we can put it right.
Around Hookwood, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Hookwood, access is usually the main thing to plan. 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.
- We clean and prepare the joint.

- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.

What affects the quote in Hookwood
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.
What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Condensation trapped between two panes
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Rooflights
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Conservatory frames
Leaks often start where the frame meets the wall. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. Stick to a soft cloth.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. It may be sealant, or something else, and we will tell you which.
Hookwood homes and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Bartholomew, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. For landlords with property near Horley station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Landmarks near Hookwood

Common problems we fix in Hookwood
Silicone will not bond to a dirty surface. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.

- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Water running down inside the glass
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Manorfield Primary and Nursery School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
