About our gutter sealing in Woodcock Hill
For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first, then dry the joint before sealing. If you are dealing with garage door frames letting rain in and drips from gutter joints and end caps, we can put it right.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Woodcock Hill is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
What happens if it’s left?
Sealant will not clear a blocked downpipe. We check the cause first and point you to the right trade if needed. Around Woodcock Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why Woodcock Hill clients choose us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

Gutter sealing in Woodcock Hill: local notes
With historic houses such as Ickenham Hall (about 4.3 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Woodcock Hill 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you look after a building such as St Mary's Church of England Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. For landlords with property near Rickmansworth station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Woodcock Hill: your questions answered
Will you come out to Woodcock Hill?
Yes, Woodcock Hill is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Rickmansworth station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
Most of the time. A sagging or cracked gutter needs more than sealant, and we will tell you.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Is sealing fascia joints something you do?
Yes. We seal open joints along fascias and soffits in a colour to suit.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

What we are called out for in Woodcock Hill
When a gutter sags, its joints open. Sealing will not hold if the gutter keeps dropping, so the gutter needs refixing first.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
In the older streets around Church of St Mary, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
What your quote should include
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What preparation is included
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What insurance they hold
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. Movement will pull the joints open again.
A drip from a gutter joint will not stop on its own. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Somewhere as small as Woodcock Hill, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Move anything stored near the joints
