How we handle glazing silicone in Dungate
Conservatory leaks often start at a sealant joint, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We find the joint that’s letting water in and renew it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. If you have cracked silicone between glass panels and mouldy sealant around glass panels, we can help, on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass balustrade bases alike.
Mastic can only go onto a dry, clean joint, so window work in Dungate is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to all the frames, upstairs ones included.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Surface by surface
Rooflights
Water around a rooflight is not always the sealant. We check which it is.
Glass balustrade bases
We reseal the joint where the glass meets the base channel. We don’t install or replace glass.
Frames and glazing around Dungate
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. Historic houses like Belmont House and Gardens (about 4.6 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Dungate 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 is traditional sand mastic.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Catherine, the joint between an old wall and a newer frame is generally the first place rain gets in. Letting a property close to Sittingbourne station? Then glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Milstead and Frinsted Church of England Primary School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Dungate questions
I let a flat near Sittingbourne station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Dungate within the area you cover?
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.
Can a conservatory leak be sealed?
That depends where the water is getting in. Sealant joints we can renew, but roof panels and structural problems need a conservatory specialist or roofer.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
Silicone doesn’t stick to silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Normally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
How do I get a quote for glazing silicone in Dungate?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Structural problems with a conservatory roof
- A broken pane or roof panel
- Leaks from the roof covering or flashing (a roofer’s job)
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Shower screens
- Rooflights
- Glass-to-glass joints
- Conservatory frames
- Glass balustrade bases
- Glass-to-frame joints
What happens if it’s left?
Silicone around glazing needs the right product. General-purpose sealant from a DIY shop may not suit glass or the frame so we choose a glazing silicone instead. In a small place like Dungate, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- You choose the colour before work begins
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- We never seal over old sealant
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work

- When we can work, for business premises
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The rough size of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
- The address or postcode of the job
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Ventilate the conservatory to cut condensation
- Squeegee the shower screen after each use
- Keep conservatory gutters clear of leaves
- Get a new leak looked at quickly
Keep conservatory gutters clear, so water drains away from the joints. Overflowing gutters can cause leaks of their own.
Act on black or lifting silicone early. Peeling silicone lets water in behind and the leak gets worse.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing in most cases. Somewhere like Dungate needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we trace the leak and check it’s coming through a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- The glass and frame are cleaned and degreased.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- The finished joints are checked and, where it’s safe, tested with water.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in
