About our glazing silicone in Maple Cross
Glazing silicone that has yellowed, blackened or come away spoils the look and lets water in. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. We are often asked to deal with split or lifting silicone on glass and glass-to-glass joints that have split, on shower screens, rooflights and conservatory frames.
Around Maple Cross, 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.
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It normally takes a few hours for most jobs. In a small place like Maple Cross, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- We clean the joint with a solvent that suits the glass and frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Different surfaces, different methods
Glass-to-glass joints
Frameless glass corners and panels are joined with silicone. We reseal with a suitable glazing silicone.
Shower screens
Silicone holds the water in on frameless screens. We reseal without scratching the glass.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Keep harsh solvents off the silicone
- Look over the glazing joints once a year
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
Damp patches, drips and condensation along a joint are worth checking. The cause may be sealant or another part, and we will tell you which.
Frames and glazing around Maple Cross
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Chenies Manor House (about 3.7 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Maple Cross as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Thomas of Canterbury, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is usually the first place rain gets in. If you let a flat or house near Rickmansworth station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. If you look after a building such as Maple Cross Junior Mixed Infant and Nursery School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Common questions in Maple Cross
Do you work for landlords with property near Rickmansworth station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Can you do glazing silicone in Maple Cross?
Yes, Maple Cross is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Do you fit new glass or sealed units?
Glass replacement is not our trade. We look after the sealant joints and can tell you if a unit seems to have gone.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
Topping up is a common cause of leaks. A proper job means cutting out, cleaning and resealing.
Why it’s worth doing now in Maple Cross
If the problem is a misted unit or a broken panel, sealant will not help. We say so plainly, so you can call the right trade. In a small place like Maple Cross, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

How we quote for glazing silicone
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- When we can work, for business premises
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The product the joint needs
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If someone has resealed it before
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
