Gutter sealing in Benham Hill, done properly
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 open joints in fascias and soffits and leaking gutter joints and stop ends, we can put it right, on roofline trims, garage door frames and soffit joints alike.
Homes around Benham Hill range from older cottages to newer houses, with walls and rooflines of every type. Older gutters and trims need their joints resealed; newer brick and render need their movement joints kept sound.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. In a smaller place like Benham Hill, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter isn’t cracked or sagging.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The joint is dried, because sealant won’t bond to a wet surface.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Common questions in Benham Hill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Newbury Racecourse station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Benham Hill in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes, Benham Hill is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you replace gutters or fascias?
No. Our work is sealing joints; replacing gutters and fascias needs a gutter or roofline installer.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?
Often, yes. Cleaning, drying and resealing the joint usually works. If the section is split or warped, it needs replacing.
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Keep downpipes clear
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job.
What we can’t put right
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
- Problems with the roof covering
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Open soffit joints let draughts in. We close them with a suitable sealant.
Gutter joints
Gutter joints move and sit in water. A dedicated gutter sealant suits them.
Benham Hill 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. With historic houses such as Shaw House (about 1.2 miles north-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Benham 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.
Letting a property close to Newbury Racecourse station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. Schools such as Fir Tree Primary School and Nursery are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. Historic houses such as Shaw House, about 1.2 miles north-west, show how far back building around Benham Hill goes.

Leave it or put it right?
A dripping stop end can soak the wall right through the wet months. Resealing it is a quick job before the damage spreads. Around Benham Hill, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
