About our glazing silicone in New Copse
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 if it’s something sealant cannot fix, we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include failed joints on frameless glass and stained, discoloured glazing silicone, on rooflights, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames.
Somewhere as small as New Copse, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these don’t always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
Check the joints once a year. Spotting a crack early means a simpler fix.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
When to call us in New Copse
UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
The most common problems we see are:
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
In the older streets around Church of St Andrew, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
What your quote should include
- What the cure time is
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
What happens if it’s left?
Fixing a leaking screen early protects what’s underneath. A small leak can reach the floor below before it shows. Older cottages and farmhouses around New Copse can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
For landlords and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
New Copse questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Alton station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Can you do glazing silicone in New Copse?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and New Copse is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Can you match the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will explain which colours are available.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Can you just put new silicone over the old?
A top-up rarely holds. Fresh silicone will not bond to cured silicone so we take it all out and start clean.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A sealed unit that has misted inside
- Cracked or broken glass
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Windows and doors in New Copse
Historic houses like Bentworth Hall (about 0.9 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around New Copse 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. 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.
Schools such as Medstead Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. Rented homes near Alton station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
