Waterhales: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Harold Wood station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Waterhales?
Yes, Waterhales is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Sealing a sagging joint won’t last. A gutter installer needs to refix it.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Do you install new fascias or gutters?
No. We seal leaking joints and trims. A gutter installer or roofer deals with replacement.
About our gutter sealing in Waterhales
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but each shower sends water to the same place. Sealing it is quick if the gutter is otherwise in good order. We work on soffit joints, garage door frames and uPVC fascias, and common reasons people get in touch are old gutter sealant that has let go and internal damp traced to a gutter joint.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Waterhales is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Waterhales
When a gutter sags, its joints open. Sealing will not hold if the gutter keeps dropping so the brackets need attention first.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Thomas, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
- Sagging gutters or broken brackets
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Why deal with it now?
A dripping gutter joint keeps wetting the same patch of wall. Over time that can stain brickwork, mark render and encourage damp so early sealing is worthwhile. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Waterhales, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself usually takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Waterhales, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Keep downpipes clear
Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.

Historic houses like Hare Hall (about 3.6 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Waterhales has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.

Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
