Gutter sealing in Dorchester, done properly
We work across Dorchester on leaking gutter joints and roofline trims. Low-level work is straightforward and if it’s higher up, let us know and we will confirm what access is needed. If you’re dealing with old sealant on roofline trims that has split and wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint, we can help.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Dorchester is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Do you need gutter sealing in Dorchester?
Sealant laid on a wet or dirty joint fails early. Some quick repairs peel off within a season or two for this reason.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
Homes close to Dorchester Abbey include some older properties, and an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
A drip from a gutter joint won’t stop on its own. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.

Gutter sealing in Dorchester: local notes
With historic houses such as Clifton Hampden Manor (about 2 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Dorchester as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you let a flat or house near Culham station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Dorchester St Birinus Church of England School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will you clear out my gutters?
Only around the joints we seal, so the sealant can bond. Cleaning the whole run is a separate job.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
How the job changes by surface
Gutter end caps
End caps take the pressure of water running along the gutter. When their seal fails, they drip.
Soffit joints
Soffit board joints can separate over time. They’re sealed to tidy the line.
Leave it or put it right?
You do not need new fascias just because the joints have opened. Sealing the joints tidies them up if the boards are sound. In a small place like Dorchester, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
