How we quote for gutter sealing
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
How we handle gutter sealing in Downham
We don’t replace gutters, fascias or roofs. What sealant does is close joints; it won’t fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. Typical jobs include drips from gutter joints and end caps and internal damp traced to a gutter joint, on gutter joints, uPVC fascias and garage door frames.
Modern London flats rely on sealed movement joints and cladding joints. Period houses have different weak points, such as gutter joints, trims and the line where an extension meets the old wall.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Leave it or put it right?
Replacing fascias because of open joints is normally unnecessary. Sealing the joints tidies them up as long as the boards are in good condition. In a flat in Downham, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Common questions in Downham
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Grove Park station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is parking an issue for gutter sealing in Downham?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Sealing a sagging joint won’t last. A gutter installer needs to refix it, and we will tell you if that’s what we find.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access from start to finish. In a London area like Downham, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Landlord and commercial work in Downham
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Make sure downpipes are not blocked
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. A small split is quicker to put right.
A drip from a gutter joint will not stop on its own. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall and that can cause damp inside.
Outside joints around Downham
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. In terraces and conversions, gutters and walls are often shared with the neighbours, so check who is responsible for the outside before booking.
If you look after a building such as Rangefield Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. Letting a property close to Grove Park station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Downham is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
