Frames and glazing around Crockleford Heath
With historic houses such as Castle House (about 3.7 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Crockleford Heath 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. 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.
Castle House, about 3.7 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Crockleford Heath, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls. Schools such as Colchester Academy are buildings too, and its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s. Letting a property close to Hythe station? Then leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.

Glazing silicone in Crockleford Heath, done properly
Not every silicone suits glass. We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone that’s suited to glass and the frame, and we tool it to a neat, even finish. If you’re dealing with new silicone smeared over old sealant and split or lifting silicone on glass, we can put it right.
Around Crockleford Heath, many homes face open ground, so their windows and doors take the full weather. That exposure dries out and cracks the mastic around frames and sills faster.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Surface by surface
Glass-to-glass joints
Where two panes meet, the silicone joint takes all the movement. It must be clean, neat and well bonded.
Glass-to-frame joints
Glass-to-frame joints need a sealant that bonds to both. We use a glazing silicone suited to each.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Misting between the panes of a double-glazed unit (a failed unit for a glazier)
- Glass that needs replacing
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Glass balustrade bases

Why deal with it now?
A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If the roof is the problem, we will say so. Older cottages and farmhouses around Crockleford Heath can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Questions from Crockleford Heath
Do you work for landlords with property near Hythe station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you cover smaller places like Crockleford Heath?
Yes, Crockleford Heath is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Is it enough to run a bead over the old sealant?
Silicone does not stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. The old bead always comes out first.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
We use a neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. Shower screens get anti-fungal silicone.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Act on drips or damp patches early
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
Keep the new joints dry for as long as we advise. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
Cracked glazing silicone means the joint has failed. Renewing it early keeps it simple, compared with repairing damaged frames or plaster.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. Somewhere like Crockleford Heath needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- Glazing silicone suited to the joint is applied and tooled.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any water getting in
