DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Glazing silicone in Eight Ash Green, done properly
Glazing joints need a sealant made for glass. Our applicators use neutral-cure glazing silicone that is suited to glass and the frame, finished with a neat, even bead. We work on glass-to-glass joints, glass-to-frame joints and conservatory frames, and common reasons people get in touch are water tracking down the inner face of the glass and mouldy sealant around glass panels.
Somewhere as small as Eight Ash Green, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Frames and glazing around Eight Ash Green
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Managing a site like Holy Trinity CofE Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. In the older streets around All Saints Church, replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint. If you let a flat or house near Marks Tey station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Eight Ash Green questions
Do you cover smaller places like Eight Ash Green?
Yes. Eight Ash Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Marks Tey station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we’re using.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The product needed can limit the range.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What sealant do you use on glazing?
We pick a glazing silicone to suit the materials. Neutral-cure products suit most glass and frames, as some acetoxy types can attack certain metals.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Why act early in Eight Ash Green
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. A general-purpose tube may not bond well or may react with the frame, so we use neutral-cure glazing silicone. Older cottages and farmhouses around Eight Ash Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
Glass-to-frame joints
Where glass sits in a frame, silicone keeps water out. A failed bead lets water in.
