Glazing & conservatory sealant in Kitwood, Hampshire

About our glazing silicone in Kitwood
Glass replacement isn’t something we do and a misted double-glazed unit needs a glazier. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. We work on shower screens, glass-to-frame joints and rooflights, and the jobs we see most are conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and leaking glazing joints on a rooflight.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Kitwood is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Kitwood
Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
Homes close to Church of the Good Shepherd include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Frames and glazing around Kitwood
Historic houses like Bentworth Hall (about 3.8 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Kitwood has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts 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 Four Marks Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Kitwood: your questions answered
Is Kitwood in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Kitwood is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Will you come out to Kitwood?
Yes. Kitwood is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
It doesn’t last. The new bead cannot grip the old one, so we remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
That depends where the water is getting in. Sealant joints we can renew, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure silicone is the usual choice.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Usually, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
- Frames that have decayed or split
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint

How we quote for glazing silicone
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The product the joint needs
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before we start.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We will send you a clear quote before any work starts.

For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

What else we do in Kitwood
Why deal with it now?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Around Kitwood, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
