How we handle glazing silicone in Monikie
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant at the glass-to-frame or frame-to-wall joints. We find the joint that is letting water in and renew it and tell you plainly if the cause is something else. Typical jobs include glass-to-glass joints that have split and water getting into a conservatory at the joints, on glass-to-frame joints, rooflights and glass-to-glass joints.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses, many standing in the open. Wind-driven rain finds any gap around a frame or sill.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dundee.

Common questions in Monikie
Is Monikie in your area for glazing silicone?
Yes, Monikie is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Do you cover smaller places like Monikie?
Yes, Monikie is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can you reseal the base of a glass balustrade?
Yes, we reseal the joint at the base channel. We do not install or replace the glass.
Which silicone is used for glass joints?
A neutral-cure glazing silicone suited to glass and the frame. In bathrooms, we use anti-fungal silicone.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
Can you fix a leaking conservatory?
In many cases, as long as sealant is the cause. We find where the water gets in first before any sealing.
When to call us in Monikie
UV light ages silicone, especially on conservatory roofs. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Water tracking down the inner face of the glass
- Failed sealant around rooflight glass
- Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
- Cracked silicone between glass panels
In the older streets around Parish Church And Burial-Ground, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame.

Why act early in Monikie
A new conservatory roof is a big job. If the leak is a failed sealant joint, resealing is far simpler. If the roof is the problem, we’ll say so. In an older home around Monikie, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Inspect the sealant on glazing annually
- Check the gutters above the glazing for debris
- Wipe the screen down after showering
- Use gentle products around the joints
Squeegee a shower screen after each shower and keep the room ventilated. That slows mould growth on the bead.
A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water travels along the frame and into the wall, so get it looked at when you first see it.
How the visit works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We find where water is getting in and check whether it’s a sealant joint.
- Old silicone is cut away from the glass and frame without scratching either.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- We apply a neutral-cure glazing silicone and tool it smooth.
- We look over every joint and, where we can, test it with water.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Monikie homes and the weather
Dundee’s older tenements are sandstone, and the city sits on the Firth of Tay, so glazing joints and frame seals on walls facing the water can take plenty of weather. Many older homes in Scotland have sash and case windows, often pointed into the wall with traditional sand mastic.
For landlords with property near Monifieth station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies.
