Glazing silicone in Little Woodcote

How we handle glazing silicone in Little Woodcote

We work across Little Woodcote on glazing joints for homes and businesses. From conservatories to shower screens, it’s the same careful method, with a sealant chosen for the joint. Typical jobs include leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray, on rooflights, glass-to-glass joints and shower screens.

Much of London’s older housing was built with timber sash windows, some still in place and some long since replaced. Either way, the mastic between frame and brickwork is what stops draughts and rain getting in.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Look over the glazing joints once a year
  • Get a new leak looked at quickly
  • Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
  • Stick to mild cleaners on glass

Keep conservatory gutters clear so water doesn’t back up against the seals. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.

Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job compared with fixing water damage later.

Glazing silicone in Little Woodcote: local notes

Historic houses like Nonsuch Mansion (about 3.3 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Little Woodcote has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

As a London address, Little Woodcote can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. If you look after a building such as Woodmansterne Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

What we are called out for in Little Woodcote

Sunlight breaks sealant down, especially on conservatory roofs. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.

People usually contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Cracked silicone between glass panels
  • Failed sealant around rooflight glass
  • Water running down inside the glass
  • Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints

If you let a flat or house near Woodmansterne station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can go on one quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

When something else is needed

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Condensation trapped between two panes
  • Rotten or badly damaged frames
  • Failed flashing around a conservatory

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

What we seal

  • Glass balustrade bases
  • Conservatory frames
  • Glass-to-glass joints
  • Shower screens
  • Glass-to-frame joints
  • Rooflights

What affects the quote in Little Woodcote

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size of the job
  • The product the joint needs
  • How many areas need sealing
  • How easy the joints are to reach

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • The rough size of the job
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Whether it has been sealed before

Common questions in Little Woodcote

Can you do glazing silicone in Little Woodcote?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Little Woodcote is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.

Can parking be tricky for a visit in Little Woodcote?

London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.

How long will you be here?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours for most jobs. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

How long before the joint can be used?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.

Do you replace glass?

We don’t replace glass. We look after the sealant joints and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

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 we do, step by step

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs for a typical job. In Little Woodcote, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.

  1. We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
  2. Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
  3. We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
  4. We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
  5. We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
