Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Mansbridge
Not every silicone suits glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone that’s suited to glass and the frame, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. We work on conservatory frames, glass balustrade bases and shower screens, and common reasons people get in touch are conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints and split or lifting silicone on glass.
Houses in smaller places like Mansbridge can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, so exposed windows and doors face the weather head on. The mastic around frames on those walls tends to age faster.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Windows and doors in Mansbridge
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like South Stoneham House (about 0.5 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Mansbridge 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.
If you look after a building such as Mansbridge Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. In the older streets around St. Mary's Church, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on. Expect the work to take a few hours for most jobs. A visit to Mansbridge is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any water getting in

Why it’s worth doing now in Mansbridge
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but silicone does not stick to silicone, and the leak normally returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. Homes in smaller places like Mansbridge can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

How the job changes by surface
Rooflights
We reseal the glazing joints on rooflights. Leaks from the roof itself need a roofer.
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. We reseal both with anti-fungal silicone.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Common problems we fix in Mansbridge
Shower screen silicone gets wet every day. Mould gets into it and the edges begin to peel.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Split or lifting silicone on glass
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
For landlords with property near Swaythling station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.
