Glazing silicone for homes and businesses in Silver Hill
Glass and frames expand and contract differently, and the silicone between them takes the strain. When it cracks or lets go, water gets in. We replace it with a glazing silicone that suits the glass and frame. If you have mouldy sealant around glass panels and split or lifting silicone on glass, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Silver Hill is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Silver Hill as everywhere else we work.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Clean glass with a mild cleaner and a soft cloth
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Use gentle products around the joints
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
Follow the cure time we give you before the joints get wet. After that, clean glass with a mild cleaner.
A leaking shower screen may not show at first. It can damage the floor or the ceiling below long before you see it.
Windows and doors in Silver Hill
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Bateman's (about 4.4 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Silver Hill as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For an older house near a landmark such as Holy Trinity, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is normally the first place rain gets in. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hurst Green Church of England Primary School and Nursery, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s.

FAQs for Silver Hill
Do you work for landlords with property near Etchingham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Silver Hill?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you guarantee glazing sealant work?
All our work has a 12-month guarantee.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Failed flashing around a conservatory
- A frame that needs repairing or replacing
- Cracked or broken glass
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Conservatory frames
- Rooflights
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-frame joints
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Shower screens
Quotes for glazing silicone in Silver Hill
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any mould that needs treating
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- If someone has resealed it before
- The type of property
- The rough size of the job
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What we’re called out for in Silver Hill
On shower screens, constant water and cleaning products wear silicone. Mould grows into the bead and the joint starts to lift.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Conservatory leaks at frame and glazing joints
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
Rented homes near Etchingham station change hands often, and glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job, depending on the amount of work. For a village or hamlet like Silver Hill, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- We cut out the failed silicone, taking care of the glass and frame.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
