Glazing silicone in Piddington
Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame and reseal the joint. We work on conservatory frames, shower screens and glass balustrade bases, and common reasons people get in touch are mouldy sealant around glass panels and rooflight joints letting water in.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Piddington is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

How the job changes by surface
Conservatory frames
Exposed frame joints wear with the weather. Renewed sealant keeps water out.
Rooflights
Rooflights get the full force of the weather. The sealant around the glass and frame wears faster than most.

What we do, step by step

Advice
Piddington: your questions answered
Will you come out to Piddington?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is Piddington in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Piddington is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What guarantee do I get?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to every job we do.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Signs you need glazing silicone in Piddington
The wrong sealant is a common cause. Some products do not bond well to glass, and acetoxy types can attack some frame materials.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Rooflight joints letting water in
Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Frames and glazing around Piddington
With historic houses such as Boarstall Tower (about 2.1 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Piddington as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Rented homes near Bicester Village station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong solvents on or near the sealant
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Don’t leave a drip for the next storm
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall so it’s best dealt with right away.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
