Glazing silicone in Tonwell
Glass, frames and walls all move at different rates, so the sealant between them does a lot of work. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. We work on glass balustrade bases, shower screens and glass-to-frame joints, and people most often call us about mouldy sealant around glass panels and silicone pulling away from the glass.
Outdoor sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work on frames around Tonwell is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to every side of the house, including upper-floor windows.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Tonwell, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.

- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
What glazing silicone looks like in Tonwell
With historic houses such as Aston Bury (about 4.6 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Tonwell 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 is traditional sand mastic. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Historic houses such as Aston Bury, about 4.6 miles north-west, show how far back building around Tonwell goes, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.

Questions from Tonwell
Is Tonwell within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Ware station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
No. Misting between panes means the sealed unit has failed, and a glazier needs to replace it.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.

What else we do in Tonwell
How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Most shower screen leaks come from the wall or tray joint. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.
Glass-to-glass joints
Silicone joins glass panels in many frameless designs. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
Do you need glazing silicone in Tonwell?
Dirt and grease stop silicone sticking. If the glass and frame weren’t cleaned properly the sealant may lift within a few years.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away
- Failed joints on frameless glass
If you look after a building such as Tonwell St Mary's Church of England Primary School, larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when cleaning the glass. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
If silicone on glass has cracked, water is already getting in. Renewing it early keeps it simple compared with fixing water damage later.
What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Cracked or broken glass
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- A sagging or failing conservatory roof
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
