To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- A few photos by email, if you can

Glazing silicone in West Stoke, done properly
Glass replacement is not something we do, and misting between panes means a failed sealed unit. Our work is the sealant joints, which is where many leaks start. Common call-outs are for failed joints on frameless glass and leaks from the base of a shower screen, across shower screens, rooflights and conservatory frames.
In a village or hamlet like West Stoke, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What we’re called out for in West Stoke
New silicone over old silicone will not bond. Many failed joints we see have been topped up rather than cut out leaving a path for water.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Black or yellowed silicone on glass joints
- A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
Schools such as Bishop Luffa School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages.

Why it’s worth doing now in West Stoke
A leaking joint won’t fix itself. Water can damage frames, walls, flooring and furniture, so it pays to deal with it early. Older cottages and farmhouses around West Stoke can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What you get with us
- We’re fully insured
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Colour agreed with you before work begins

How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as West Stoke, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
- We remove the old sealant carefully.
- The joint is cleaned and degreased.
- We lay the new bead and tool it smooth.
- We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
How long does glazing silicone take?
Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Windows and doors in West Stoke
Historic houses like West Dean House (about 3.2 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around West Stoke 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’s traditional sand mastic. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Andrew, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. For landlords with property near Fishbourne station, a shower screen or conservatory joint that leaks is easier to reseal while the property is empty.

Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

How the job changes by surface
Glass-to-frame joints
Silicone at the glass edge seals it into the frame. When it splits, water can get into the frame.
Glass-to-glass joints
Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We renew it with a clear or matching glazing silicone.
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Do not use a blade near the sealant
Gentle products are best near the sealant. Harsh solvents may damage the bead.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Once it starts to peel, water gets behind it and the problem grows.
