Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Fair Cross
We renew glazing silicone on conservatories, rooflights and glass panels plus shower screens and the bases of glass balustrades. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. We work on conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and rooflights, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking glazing joints on a rooflight and glass-to-glass joints that have split.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Fair Cross is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What the job involves on each surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
How we quote for glazing silicone
We do not publish a price list. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Which sealant suits the joint
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The address or postcode of the job
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
If you’re in Fair Cross and need glazing silicone, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Fair Cross
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
The most common problems we see are:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
For landlords with property near Mortimer station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Fair Cross homes and the weather
Historic houses like Stratfield Saye House (about 0.7 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Fair Cross has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
If you live in an older home near Church of St. Mary the Virgin, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

The process
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for most jobs. Somewhere as small as Fair Cross, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
- Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
- We clean and prepare the joint.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
- The joints are checked before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
Use mild cleaners on and around the silicone. Strong solvents can soften or mark it.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.
Questions from Fair Cross
Is Fair Cross in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Fair Cross is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Fair Cross?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you replace a misted double-glazed unit?
No, our work is the silicone. Glass and sealed units need a glazier.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
If the water is coming in through failed sealant joints, yes. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we will say so.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
Topping up is a common cause of leaks. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Fair Cross.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
When something else is needed
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
- A broken pane or roof panel
- A roof that has moved or dropped
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Rooflights
- Shower screens
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but new silicone won’t bond to old, and the leak usually returns. A proper reseal is the lasting answer. Older cottages and farmhouses around Fair Cross can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
