Glazing silicone in Little Holbury
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We find the joint that is letting water in and renew it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. Typical jobs include water tracking down the inner face of the glass and mouldy sealant around glass panels, across conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and rooflights.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Little Holbury is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

The process
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. In a small place like Little Holbury, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we check where the water gets in.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any tricky access
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
Frames and glazing around Little Holbury
Little Holbury is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on glazing joints and frame seals, especially on the side facing the sea. Historic houses like Beaulieu Palace House (about 2.8 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Little Holbury 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 is traditional sand mastic.
Letting a property close to Netley station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. Managing a site like Manor Church of England Infant School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Typical jobs here are in homes near The New Forest Academy, among other places. For rail, the closest station is Netley station, about 3.6 miles north-east of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Beaulieu Abbey And Display Of Monastic Life (2.9 miles west) and Netley Castle (3.3 miles north). For a walk, there’s Mercury Marshes.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but new silicone won’t bond to old, and the leak generally returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Little Holbury, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Landlord and commercial work in Little Holbury
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
When something else is needed
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A roof that has moved or dropped
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Glass that needs replacing
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames

What we’re called out for in Little Holbury
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products don’t bond well to glass and vinegar-smelling acetoxy silicone can attack some metals.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
Historic houses such as Beaulieu Palace House, about 2.8 miles west, show how far back building around Little Holbury goes.

Different surfaces, different methods
Rooflights
Rooflight glazing joints are cut out and renewed. Leaks from the roof itself need a roofer.
Glass-to-glass joints
Glass-to-glass joints depend entirely on the sealant. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.
Your questions about glazing silicone in Little Holbury
Do you work for landlords with property near Netley station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is glazing silicone in a coastal place like Little Holbury any different?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
It depends on the cause. Sealant joints we can renew, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
