Gutter joints
A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.
Soffit joints
We choose a sealant colour that suits the soffit, where one is available.
About our gutter sealing in Fairlop
Gutter and fascia replacement isn’t our trade, and nor is roofing. What sealant does is close joints and it can’t mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. We work on gutter joints, roofline trims and uPVC fascias, and the jobs we see most are garage door frames letting rain in and dripping gutter ends. Whether you’re looking for a mastic company, a silicone specialist or a sealant contractor in Fairlop, Mr Mastic can help.
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, and both kinds of building are found across London.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Walls and rooflines in Fairlop
London terraces and converted houses often share gutters, downpipes and walls, so check who is responsible for the outside before booking. Historic houses like Valentines Mansion (about 2.1 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Fairlop has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
If you live in an older home near St Francis of Assisi, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. Fairlop is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What affects the quote in Fairlop
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- When we can work, for business premises
- The product the joint needs
- Access and height
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 07833 053749 or email us.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Whether it’s a home or a business
If you are in Fairlop and need gutter sealing, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
When to call us in Fairlop
End caps get knocked or pushed by water. If the seal fails, water escapes at the end.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
Rented homes near Seven Kings station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- The length of the guarantee
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- When the joint can take water or movement
Questions from Fairlop
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Fairlop?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.
Do you cover Fairlop for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Fairlop is part of that. You can ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
How long does gutter sealing take?
Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.
Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?
In many cases, yes. A clean, dry joint resealed with gutter sealant normally stops the drip. If the section is split or warped, it needs replacing.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
Keep downpipes clear, so water can get away. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp inside.
Leave it or put it right?
Replacing fascias because of open joints is generally unnecessary. A neat seal closes the gaps if the boards are sound. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Fairlop, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
