Glazing silicone in Tilford Common, done properly
Sealant on glazing does not last for ever. Sun, rain and movement wear it down and cracked joints let water in. Resealing puts that right. If you have glass-to-glass joints that have split and leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame, we can help, on glass balustrade bases, shower screens and glass-to-glass joints alike.
Somewhere as small as Tilford Common, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Surface by surface
Shower screens
A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Glass balustrade bases
Glass balustrades sit in a channel that is often finished with sealant. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Tilford Common needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
Tilford Common homes and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Farnham Castle (about 3.9 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Tilford Common as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Schools such as All Saints CofE Aided Infant School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Rented homes near Farnham station change hands often, and leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Questions from Tilford Common
Do you cover Tilford Common for glazing silicone?
Yes, Tilford Common is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Tilford Common?
Yes. Tilford Common is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
In many cases, as long as sealant is the cause. We trace the leak first before any sealing.
Is a special sealant needed for glass?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Tilford Common and the rest of Surrey.
Do you need glazing silicone in Tilford Common?
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip to the glass and frame.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Rooflight joints letting water in
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Water running down inside the glass
- Failed joints on frameless glass
In the older streets around Church of All Saints, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.
Questions to ask before you book
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How the colour is chosen

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Clear the conservatory gutters regularly, so water drains away from the joints. Blocked gutters can push water where it shouldn’t go.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Resealing now is a small job, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What happens if it’s left?
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 use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Tilford Common, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
