FAQs for Old Heathfield
Do you cover Old Heathfield for glazing silicone?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Old Heathfield is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
What guarantee comes with glazing silicone in Old Heathfield?
All our work, in Old Heathfield and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. 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?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before work begins.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.
How we handle glazing silicone in Old Heathfield
Our work covers conservatory joints, rooflights and glass panels, as well as frameless shower screens and glass balustrade bases. The old sealant comes out, the joint is cleaned and new silicone goes in. Common call-outs are for water running down inside the glass and glass-to-glass joints that have split, across glass-to-frame joints, glass balustrade bases and shower screens.
Homes in small places like Old Heathfield often stand in the open, with little to shelter their windows from wind and rain. Exposed frames and sills lose their mastic sooner than sheltered ones.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Old Heathfield as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Don’t use a blade near the sealant
- Open vents or windows to let moisture out
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
Don’t use blades or scrapers near the bead when you clean. Stick to a soft cloth.
Don’t leave lifting or mouldy silicone on glazing. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.
Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over the old sealant might stop a drip for a while, but new silicone won’t bond to old, and the leak normally returns. Cutting out and resealing properly lasts. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Old Heathfield, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Old Heathfield homes and the weather
Historic houses like Bateman's (about 4.9 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Old Heathfield has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that’s traditional sand mastic. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Homes close to The Parish Church of All Saints include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Heathfield Community College, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

We cut the old silicone from the glass without scratching it before new glazing silicone goes in.
Shower screens
Black or peeling silicone on a screen lets water out. Cutting it out and resealing fixes it.
