Gutter sealing in Crow's Green

Gutter sealing in Crow's Green, done properly

Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame with an exterior sealant. If you have damp patches inside below a leaking gutter and wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint, we can help.

Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Crow's Green is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Crow's Green questions

Do you work for landlords with property near Braintree station?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Will you come out to Crow's Green?

Yes. Crow's Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?

Most of the time. A sagging or cracked gutter needs more than sealant and we will say so.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we are fully insured.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Will sealing fix a sagging gutter?

It won’t last. The joint will pull apart so the gutter has to be refixed first.

Can you fit new guttering?

No, we reseal joints and trims. Replacement needs a gutter installer or roofer.

Aftercare tips

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Don’t leave a sagging gutter
  • Glance at the soffit joints now and then
  • Keep downpipes clear
  • Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint

Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise before poking or cleaning near it.

Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. We’ll let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.

Gutter sealing in Crow's Green: local notes

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.

If you let a flat or house near Braintree station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Can I do it myself?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

What we do, step by step

We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job normally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Crow's Green, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
  2. Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
  3. The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
  4. An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Clear the area around the work

Signs you need gutter sealing in Crow's Green

Sealant on fascias and trims weathers like any outdoor joint. It hardens, shrinks and splits after some years.

People generally contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
  • Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
  • Dripping gutter ends
  • Drips from gutter joints and end caps

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St James, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

  • How long the guarantee is
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
