Windows and doors in Purley
In a converted house or block, who looks after the windows depends on the lease, so check that before booking. Historic houses like Addington Palace (about 3.6 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Purley 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.
Managing a site like Christ Church CofE Primary School (Purley)? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Purley station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Why it’s worth doing now in Purley
Glazing joints need a sealant made for the job. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Dealing with it early is far simpler.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Questions from Purley
Do you work for landlords with property near Purley station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is parking a problem for a job in Purley?
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.
Is it possible to redo the silicone on a shower screen?
We can. We remove the old silicone carefully before cleaning and resealing.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Purley
For anyone letting property in or around Purley, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Check the silicone on glass every year or so
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you’re done
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Do not leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.
Signs you need glazing silicone in Purley
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould grows into the bead and the edges begin to peel.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Stained, discoloured glazing silicone
- Silicone pulling away from the glass
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Leaking glazing joints on a rooflight
For an older house near a landmark such as St Swithun's, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What product goes in the joint
What affects the cost of glazing silicone
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Access and height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- When we can work, for business premises
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- How we’d reach the joints
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Roughly how big the job is
- If someone has resealed it before
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
How the visit works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for most jobs for a typical job. In Purley, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
