About our gutter sealing in Blackmore
We work across Blackmore on leaking gutter joints and roofline trims. Low-level work is straightforward and if it’s higher up, let us know and we’ll confirm what access is needed. If you’re dealing with end caps that drip every time it rains and water running down the wall below the gutter, we can help.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Blackmore is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Somewhere as small as Blackmore, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- We clean out each joint.
- The joints are dried.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- We check our work before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

What sealant work cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Guttering that needs replacing
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Where we work in Blackmore
- uPVC fascias
- Gutter end caps
- Roofline trims
- Soffit joints
- Gutter joints
- Garage door frames
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
Make sure downpipes are not blocked, so water can get away. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp inside.
Blackmore questions
Will you come out to Blackmore?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Ingatestone station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will it make 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.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?
Sealing a sagging joint won’t last. A gutter installer needs to refix it.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
Low-level work is easiest. We will confirm the access for higher gutters before we book.
Leave it or put it right?
A new garage door is not needed for a leaking frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough, if the frame itself is sound. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Blackmore, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- We are fully insured
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- We never seal over old sealant
- A choice of colours where the product allows
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Gutter sealing in Blackmore: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Ingatestone Hall (about 3.8 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Blackmore 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.
Schools such as Blackmore Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you live in an older home near Church of St Laurence, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Blackmore
Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Temperature changes make gutters move, and old seals crack or slip.
Look out for any of the following:
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
Letting a property close to Ingatestone station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
