- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Leaks from the base of a shower screen
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Carisbrooke
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, and the silicone between them takes the strain. Once it splits or comes away, water finds a way through. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. If you’re dealing with failed joints on frameless glass and water running down inside the glass, we can put it right, on glass-to-glass joints, glass balustrade bases and glass-to-frame joints alike.
Many houses in smaller places like Carisbrooke have conservatories, garden rooms or patio doors. Those joints need the same attention as the main windows, and any older timber or sash windows need a sealant that suits them.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

What we are called out for in Carisbrooke
Glass and frames expand and contract with the temperature at different rates. Over years, that movement tears the silicone.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- New silicone smeared over old sealant
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
Homes close to St. Mary's Church include some older properties, and the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in.

Glazing silicone in Carisbrooke: local notes
With historic houses such as Carisbrooke Castle (about 0.3 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Carisbrooke as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Thomas of Canterbury Catholic Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Carisbrooke: your questions answered
Can you do glazing silicone in Carisbrooke?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Carisbrooke is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Carisbrooke?
All our work, in Carisbrooke and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
It depends on the cause. Failed glazing and frame joints can be resealed, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No, our work is the silicone. A glazier replaces glass and units.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before work begins.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The size of the job
- Whether the work is at height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Working hours on commercial sites
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The type of property
For glazing silicone in Carisbrooke, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Condensation trapped between two panes
- Water coming through the roof rather than a sealant joint
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames

- Shower screens
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. From then on, a mild glass cleaner is all it needs.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. It may be sealant, or something else and we’ll find out which.
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a job in Carisbrooke, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we agree the joints to be done.
- We cut away the failed silicone.
- The surfaces are cleaned with a suitable solvent.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- We inspect the work and test it where we can.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
