Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
How we handle glazing silicone in Godstow
Sealant on glazing does not last for ever. Weather and movement take their toll, and once it cracks, water follows. Renewing it keeps glazing joints doing their job. Typical jobs include rooflight joints letting water in and cracked silicone between glass panels, across conservatory frames, glass-to-frame joints and glass balustrade bases.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Godstow is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Glazing silicone in Godstow: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Holywell Manor (about 2.7 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Godstow 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.
Schools such as Wolvercote Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Oxford Parkway station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty. Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Godstow questions
I let a flat near Oxford Parkway station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Can you do glazing silicone in Godstow?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Godstow is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
Yes, when the leak is a failed sealant joint. If the cause is the roof, a panel or a unit, we’ll say so.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with photos by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
It doesn’t last. The new bead cannot grip the old one so we take it all out and start clean.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
Yes, we do these often. The screen is resealed with anti-fungal silicone suited to bathrooms.
What the job involves on each surface
Shower screens
Mouldy or lifting sealant on a screen leaks. A full reseal sorts it.
Glass-to-glass joints
These joints are on show, so we take care to leave a neat bead.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below before you spot it.

What happens on the day

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
