Little Hungerford homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Shaw House (about 4.1 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Little Hungerford as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
Rented homes near Newbury Racecourse station change hands often, and a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you live in an older home near Church of St Bartholomew, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Little Hungerford
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. We work on glass-to-glass joints, rooflights and glass balustrade bases, and the jobs we see most are mouldy sealant around glass panels and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray.
Homes in small places like Little Hungerford often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in West Berkshire.

Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What else we do in Little Hungerford
What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We renew it without marking the glass.
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
How the visit works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Little Hungerford, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip 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.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

How much does glazing silicone cost in Little Hungerford?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Will the old sealant be removed?

How we quote for glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The product the joint needs
- Working hours on commercial sites
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Where the property is
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Why deal with it now?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint renewing the joint is the simpler fix. If it’s the roof itself, we will tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Little Hungerford can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
