Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Watch House Green
We do not replace gutters, fascias or roofs. What sealant does is close joints and it cannot mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. Typical jobs include open joints in fascias and soffits and leaking gutter joints and stop ends, on uPVC fascias, roofline trims and soffit joints.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Watch House Green is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.

Can I do it myself?
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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

What else we do in Watch House Green
Watch House Green buildings and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Managing a site like Felsted Primary School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. For landlords with property near Braintree station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. Homes close to Church of the Holy Cross include some older properties, and an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

- Garage door frames

What the job involves on each surface
uPVC fascias
Gaps in fascias spoil the roofline. Sealing them closes the gap.
Gutter joints
Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. They’re cleaned out, dried and resealed.
How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as Watch House Green, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter isn’t broken or sagging.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can go on one quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Why it’s worth doing now in Watch House Green
A bead squeezed onto a wet joint might hold for a while, but it soon lets go. Proper preparation is the difference. Older cottages and farmhouses around Watch House Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start.
Why us?
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- Every job guaranteed for a year
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Keep downpipes clear
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
Check the joints after heavy rain now and then. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry and the wall below.

Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
It will not last. The joint will pull apart, so the fall and brackets need sorting first.
Will you clear out my gutters?
The joints we seal are cleaned out and any debris nearby is cleared. Cleaning the whole run is a different job.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
