Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Abbotswood
Gutter and fascia replacement isn’t our trade, and nor is roofing. Sealant fixes joints; it won’t fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. If you’re dealing with cracked sealant along roofline trims and dripping gutter ends, we can help, on gutter joints, soffit joints and gutter end caps alike.
In a smaller place like Abbotswood, some homes face open ground, so exposed walls and rooflines take more wind-driven rain. Joints on those sides are usually the first to go.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. For a job in Abbotswood, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter isn’t broken or sagging.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.

- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
Your questions about gutter sealing in Abbotswood
Do you work for landlords with property near London Road (Guildford) station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Abbotswood?
Yes, Abbotswood 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 sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Not for long. The movement opens the joint again, so the fall and brackets need sorting first.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?
Yes. We seal the joints, not replace the boards, and if a board is damaged, we’ll tell you.
What guarantee comes with the job?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job.
Outside joints around Abbotswood
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 Guildford Castle (about 0.7 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Abbotswood as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
In the older streets around Christ Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Lanesborough School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

How the job changes by surface
Gutter joints
Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. We clean, dry and reseal them.
Garage door frames
A fresh seal around the frame stops rain getting in.
Honest limits
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Problems with the roof covering
- Fascias that need replacing
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- uPVC fascias
- Roofline trims
- Gutter joints
- Soffit joints
- Gutter end caps
- Garage door frames
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Keep downpipes clear
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp inside.
