Styants Bottom Glazing Silicone
Glazing silicone for conservatories, rooflights, glass panels and shower screens for homes and businesses in Styants Bottom and across Kent. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Water escaping where a screen meets the wall
- Sealant that was laid over old silicone and failed
- Glass-to-glass joints that have split
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
About our glazing silicone in Styants Bottom
Many conservatory leaks come down to failed sealant, where glass meets frame or frame meets wall. We trace the leak to the joint and reseal it, and if it’s something sealant can’t fix, we’ll tell you. We work on conservatory frames, rooflights and glass-to-frame joints, and people most often call us about silicone pulling away from the glass and shower screens leaking along the wall or tray.
Homes in small places like Styants Bottom 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.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How the job changes by surface
Shower screens
Frameless screens rely on silicone at the base and wall. We renew it without marking the glass.
Rooflights
We reseal the glazing joints on rooflights. If the leak is from the roof around it, a roofer needs to look.
When something else is needed
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Condensation trapped between two panes
- Glass that needs replacing
- Rotten or badly damaged frames
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on

The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many joints need doing. For a village or hamlet like Styants Bottom, 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.
- We start by finding the leak and making sure sealant is the cause.
- The old sealant is removed from the glass and frame without scratching them.
- Surfaces are cleaned with a solvent suited to glass and the frame.
- New glazing silicone goes in and is tooled to a neat finish.
- We check the joints and, where safe, run water over them.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Frames and glazing around Styants Bottom
With historic houses such as Ightham Mote (about 1.9 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Styants Bottom as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window. 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.
Managing a site like Ightham Primary School? Then larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. If you let a flat or house near Kemsing station, leaking glazing joints, shower screens or conservatory seals are worth sorting between tenancies. Homes close to St Lawrence include some older properties, and replacement windows fitted into old openings often leave uneven gaps that need backing and a flexible joint.

Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Styants Bottom and the rest of Kent.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Why not top up the existing silicone?
New silicone won’t bond to old silicone and water gets between the layers. We cut out the old sealant first.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
What guarantee do I get?

Why it’s worth doing now in Styants Bottom
Replacing a conservatory roof is major work. Where the water is getting in through sealant, resealing is far simpler. If it’s the roof itself, we’ll tell you. In a small place like Styants Bottom, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
