Burn's Green homes and the weather
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. With historic houses such as Aston Bury (about 2.1 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Burn's Green 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Benington Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Letting a property close to Watton-At-Stone station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

About our glazing silicone in Burn's Green
Not every silicone suits glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that’s suited to glass and the frame, finished with a neat, even bead. We work on rooflights, glass-to-frame joints and glass-to-glass joints, and the jobs we see most are stained, discoloured glazing silicone and new silicone smeared over old sealant.
Around Burn's Green, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Why it’s worth doing now in Burn's Green
Leaks get worse, not better. Left, water can mark floors, damage plaster and rot timber, so it pays to deal with it early. In a small place like Burn's Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
Why us?
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- We agree the colour with you first

How the job changes by surface
Glass balustrade bases
The base of a glass balustrade is usually sealed. When it fails, water can sit in the channel.
Conservatory frames
Frame joints face sun and rain all year. Renewed sealant keeps water out.
What we are called out for in Burn's Green
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould grows into the bead and the edges begin to peel.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Leaks where conservatory glass meets the frame
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
In the older streets around Parish Church of St Peter, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in.

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep scrapers and blades away from the silicone
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Conservatory leaks rarely stay small. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.

How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Burn's Green?

Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
New silicone won’t bond to old silicone and water gets between the layers. The old bead always comes out first.

Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.
