How we handle gutter sealing in Arkley
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. We work on gutter end caps, uPVC fascias and gutter joints, and the jobs we see most are internal damp traced to a gutter joint and streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint.
In London terraces and converted houses, gutters and walls are often shared with the house next door, so one failed joint can cause damp for more than one household. For a flat in Arkley, check the lease for who looks after the outside.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. In a London area like Arkley, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter isn’t cracked or sagging.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Questions from Arkley
Is Arkley in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Arkley is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Elstree & Borehamwood station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Sealant will not hold a sagging gutter. The gutter needs refixing by a gutter installer.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
Most of the time. A sagging or cracked gutter needs more than sealant and we’ll say so.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Keep downpipes clear
Keep downpipes clear so the gutter can drain. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry.
Walls and rooflines in Arkley
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. In terraces and conversions, gutters and walls are often shared with the neighbours, so check who is responsible for the outside before booking.
In the older streets around St Peter's Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Rented homes near Elstree & Borehamwood station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Whitings Hill Primary School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Quotes for gutter sealing in Arkley
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The product the joint needs
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether the work is at height
- The size of the job
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Where the property is
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
What happens if it’s left?
A dripping stop end can soak the wall right through the wet months. Resealing it is a quick job before the damage spreads. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
