Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Hornestreet

Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame using a sealant made for outdoor use. If you have open joints in fascias and soffits and water running down the wall below the gutter, we can help.

Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Hornestreet is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Hornestreet

Will you come out to Hornestreet?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Is Hornestreet in your area for gutter sealing?

Yes, Hornestreet is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Can you fit new guttering?

That’s not something we do. Our work is sealing joints and replacement is a job for an installer.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need and we’ll quote it together.

Will you leave a mess?

We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.

Do I have to be there?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep the gutters clear of debris
  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
  • Don’t leave a sagging gutter
  • Deal with a drip before winter

Look at fascia and trim joints when you are checking the gutters. A small split is quicker to put right.

Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. A reseal sorts it while the frame is sound.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hornestreet

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

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Sagging gutters or broken brackets
  • Rotten or damaged fascia boards
  • Cracked, split or warped gutter sections

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Common problems we fix in Hornestreet

Overflowing gutters can look like leaking joints. A blocked downpipe makes water back up so we check the cause first.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Water dripping where gutter sections meet
  • Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
  • Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
  • Failed sealant on a garage door frame

If you look after a building such as Langham Primary School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

How to choose a mastic man

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

What happens on the day

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Somewhere like Hornestreet needs a little journey planning: 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 agree which joints need sealing.
  2. We clean out each joint.
  3. The joints are dried.
  4. We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
  5. The joints are checked once sealed.

Preparing for the visit

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice

Hornestreet buildings and the weather

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. Historic houses like Castle House (about 2.4 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Hornestreet has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
