Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Hurst Wickham
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. Each joint is cut out, cleaned and resealed. Common call-outs are for water tracking down the inner face of the glass and sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed, on conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and rooflights.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Hurst Wickham is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hurst Wickham, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
Why book with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
Look over the glazing joints every year or so. Catching a split early keeps the repair small.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls so it’s best dealt with right away.
Surface by surface
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Conservatory frames
Conservatory frame joints are a common source of leaks. We cut out the old sealant and reseal.
Hurst Wickham questions
I let a flat near Hassocks station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Hurst Wickham?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Hurst Wickham, along with the rest of our area.
Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?
Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Hurst Wickham homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Ockenden Manor (about 5 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Hurst Wickham as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Letting a property close to Hassocks station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Lawrence CofE Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St George, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.
