Sholden: your questions answered
Does the coastal weather in Sholden affect outside sealant?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
I let a flat near Deal station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
How much does gutter sealing cost in Sholden?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.

What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
About our gutter sealing in Sholden
Gutter and fascia replacement is not our trade, and nor is roofing. Sealant fixes joints and it cannot mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. We’re often asked to deal with old gutter sealant that has let go and dripping gutter ends, on roofline trims, gutter joints and gutter end caps.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Sholden is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee.

What we cannot put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Brackets that have snapped or loosened
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
- Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Gutter end caps
- Gutter joints
- Garage door frames
- Roofline trims
- Soffit joints
- uPVC fascias
Surface by surface
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. An exterior sealant suits them.
Gutter end caps
Stop ends hold back water at the end of a run. When their seal fails, they drip.

What else we do in Sholden
Why it’s worth doing now in Sholden
You do not need to replace a garage door because rain gets in round the frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough. Older cottages and farmhouses around Sholden can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Sholden
- Full insurance on every job
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- Colour agreed with you before any work starts
- Colour picked to suit the job
When to call us in Sholden
When a gutter sags, its joints open. Sealing won’t hold if the gutter keeps dropping, so the gutter needs refixing first.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Failed sealant on a garage door frame
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
Rented homes near Deal station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

- When the joint can take water or movement

DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Somewhere as small as Sholden, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Sholden buildings and the weather
Sholden is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. With historic houses such as Walmer Castle (about 2 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Sholden as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
Schools such as Sholden Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. In the older streets around Church of St Nicholas, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
