Signs you need glazing silicone in Old Basing

Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. Where the joint wasn’t cleaned and degreased, the bead can peel away early.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Glass-to-glass joints that have split
  • Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
  • Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
  • Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight

Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

10 questions to ask before booking

Windows and doors in Old Basing

Historic houses like The Vyne (about 3.3 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Old Basing 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. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

Schools such as Old Basing Infant School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Basingstoke station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

When it is not the sealant

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Frames that have decayed or split
  • Glass that needs replacing
  • A sagging or failing conservatory roof

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

Your questions about glazing silicone in Old Basing

Do you cover smaller places like Old Basing?

Yes. Old Basing is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Is Old Basing in your area for glazing silicone?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Old Basing is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Is balustrade sealant something you do?

Yes. The sealant joint at the base can be renewed. We don’t install or replace the glass.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

How long will you be here?

It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

Do I need to be at home?

It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Which silicone is used for glass joints?

A glazing-grade silicone is best. We use neutral-cure glazing silicone and anti-fungal silicone in wet areas.

How to look after the new joints

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Clear the conservatory gutters regularly
  • Act on drips or damp patches early
  • Avoid scraping close to the bead
  • Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation

Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. A soft cloth or sponge is best.

Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the leak gets worse.

How the job changes by surface

Glass-to-glass joints

Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. The bead needs to be tidy and fully bonded.

Conservatory frames

Frame joints face sun and rain all year. Renewed sealant keeps water out.

DIY versus a professional finish

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What affects the cost of glazing silicone

There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • 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

Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

What to tell us for a quote

To help us quote quickly, let us know:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Every job is quoted individually. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.

What happens on the day

We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. A visit to Old Basing is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We look at the glazing and agree which joints need resealing.
  2. Old sealant is removed from the glass and frame.
  3. We clean and prepare the joint.
  4. New glazing silicone goes in and is finished neatly.
  5. The joints are checked before we leave.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
