Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in South Weirs
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it, and if it’s something sealant can’t fix, we will tell you. If you’re dealing with new silicone smeared over old sealant and conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints, we can put it right, on glass-to-frame joints, conservatory frames and glass-to-glass joints alike.
Somewhere as small as South Weirs, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

South Weirs questions
Is South Weirs in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and South Weirs is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Brockenhurst station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Can you match 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.
Do you replace glass?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed, and a glazier needs to replace it.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.
Surface by surface
Glass balustrade bases
We reseal the joint where the glass meets the base channel. Glass fitting is a separate trade.
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. Older cottages and farmhouses around South Weirs can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

How we quote for glazing silicone
We do not publish a price list. The quote depends on:
- The number and length of the joints
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Access and height
- The product the joint needs
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Where the property is
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like South Weirs needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided 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
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Windows and doors in South Weirs
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Schools such as Brockenhurst Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Saviour, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
