How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Run a squeegee over the glass when you are done
- Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep air moving in the conservatory
- Avoid scraping close to the bead
Avoid scraping near the new silicone when you clean. A soft cloth or sponge is best.
Drips or damp near a glazing joint shouldn’t be ignored. It may be sealant, or something else, and we will tell you which.
Glazing silicone in Horseman Side, done properly
A frameless shower screen depends on its silicone. The joint down the wall and the one along the tray are common leak points and both get fresh anti-fungal silicone. If you have water tracking down the inner face of the glass and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray, we can put it right, on conservatory frames, glass-to-frame joints and glass-to-glass joints alike.
In a village or hamlet like Horseman Side, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Horseman Side homes and the weather
With historic houses such as Hill Hall (about 4.2 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Horseman Side 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. 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 landlords with property near Brentwood station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. If you look after a building such as Drapers' Academy, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

What else we do in Horseman Side
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How we quote for glazing silicone
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Any mould that needs treating
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The type of property
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the property is
- How we’d reach the joints
We quote each job on its own. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send photos if you have them.
Why act early in Horseman Side
Resealing can’t fix a failed unit or a cracked panel. We say so plainly and point you to a glazier or roofer. Around Horseman Side, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

What we are called out for in Horseman Side
Sunlight breaks sealant down and roof joints get the most sun. Old silicone hardens, cracks and loses its grip on the glass.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Mouldy sealant around glass panels
If you live in an older home near Church of St Paul, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.
What your quote should include
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Who turns up on the day
