Your questions about gutter sealing in Old Basing
Do you work for landlords with property near Basingstoke station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you cover Old Basing for gutter sealing?
Yes, Old Basing is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
About our gutter sealing in Old Basing
Our work covers gutter joints and end caps as well as fascias and soffits, along with roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s all about the joints, not replacing the gutter. We work on garage door frames, uPVC fascias and gutter joints, and the jobs we see most are drips from gutter joints and end caps and gaps along fascia and soffit joints.
Houses in smaller places like Old Basing can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, and walls and rooflines facing the weather take the worst of it. That is where gutter joints and wall joints tend to fail first.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Old Basing and everywhere else we cover.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Deal with a drip before winter
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains and that can cause damp inside.
What gutter sealing looks like in Old Basing
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as The Vyne (about 3.3 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Old Basing as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
If you let a flat or house near Basingstoke station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

The process
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access for a typical job. Parking around Old Basing is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- We clean out each joint.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Old Basing
End caps get knocked or pushed by water. Once the seal behind them fails, they drip and runs down the wall.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
If you look after a building such as Old Basing Infant School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before you book
- How much experience the applicator has
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
Quotes for gutter sealing in Old Basing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much there is to do
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:

Leave it or put it right?
A dripping stop end can soak the wall right through the wet months. Resealing it is a quick job before the damage spreads. Around Old Basing, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
