How we handle gutter sealing in Saddlescombe
Gaps along uPVC fascias and soffits look untidy and can let in water and draughts. They’re sealed in a matching colour where possible. Typical jobs include earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off and fascia boards with gaps between them, on uPVC fascias, roofline trims and soffit joints.
Older homes in small places like Saddlescombe may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water usually gets in.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Water backing up from a blocked pipe
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Saddlescombe
Is Saddlescombe within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Saddlescombe in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes, Saddlescombe is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is sealing fascia joints something you do?
Yes. We seal the joints, not replace the boards and we’ll let you know if a board has failed.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Saddlescombe.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
What the job involves on each surface
Gutter end caps
We seal end caps from the inside where we can reach once clean and dry.
Gutter joints
A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A dedicated gutter sealant suits them.

When to call us in Saddlescombe
Stop ends take pressure from water running along the gutter. If the seal fails, water escapes at the end and runs down the wall.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
Homes close to The Church of the Holy Trinity include some older properties, and an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

What happens if it’s left?
A dripping stop end can soak the wall right through the wet months. Resealing it is a quick job before the damage spreads. Around Saddlescombe, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Saddlescombe buildings and the weather
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. With historic houses such as Portslade Manor (about 3.3 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Saddlescombe as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
Rented homes near Hassocks station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together.
What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Somewhere as small as Saddlescombe, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. Splits are easier to seal early.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. A reseal sorts it while the frame is sound.
