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 matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Glazing silicone in Purbrook
Glazing silicone is a maintenance item. Sun, rain and movement wear it down and cracked joints let water in. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. We work on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about black or yellowed silicone on glass joints and a quick top-up bead that didn’t last.
Walls in Purbrook that face the prevailing wind take the most weather, so the mastic there tends to fail first. Checking every frame, not just the obvious one, is time well spent.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Why deal with it now?
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. Around Purbrook, failed sealant lets water into hidden places, such as under the floor, behind a panel or into a wall. Left alone, that means rot, damp and a bigger repair.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Glazing silicone in Purbrook: local notes
Purbrook is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on glazing joints and frame seals, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. With historic houses such as Warblington Castle (about 3.3 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Purbrook as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
For landlords with property near Bedhampton station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as Purbrook Junior School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.
Purbrook is about 2 miles west of Havant, in Hampshire. We carry out glazing silicone for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Purbrook, as part of our work across Hampshire. Our area takes in 683 places across Hampshire, large and small.

Common problems we fix in Purbrook
New silicone over old silicone won’t bond. Plenty of leaks come from a quick top-up over the old bead, and water gets between the layers.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Water getting into a conservatory at the joints
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Purbrook: your questions answered
Is Purbrook in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Purbrook is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you work for landlords with property near Bedhampton station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will resealing stop my conservatory leaking?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If it’s a broken panel, failed unit or roof problem, we’ll tell you.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
A top-up rarely holds. The new bead cannot grip the old one so we take it all out and start clean.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. We will tell you when we quote.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A glazing silicone chosen for the joint. Neutral-cure silicone is the usual choice.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product and the conditions. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
The process
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job in most cases. In Purbrook, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and let us know if the work is upstairs, in a flat or up high outside.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- Each joint is checked and, where possible, water-tested.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.
Glass-to-frame joints
Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We choose a product that suits both.
