The process
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours and we leave things clean and tidy. Parking around Botley is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- 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.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

What sealant work cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Sagging gutters or broken brackets
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
- Blocked downpipes
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Soffit joints
- Gutter joints
- Gutter end caps
- uPVC fascias
- Roofline trims
- Garage door frames
What happens if it’s left?
Replacing fascias because of open joints is generally unnecessary. A neat seal closes the gaps as long as the boards are in good condition. In an older home around Botley, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Different surfaces, different methods
Gutter joints
Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. We clean, dry and reseal them.
Garage door frames
Frame-to-brick joints face the weather. We use a sealant made for outdoor joints.
Do you need gutter sealing in Botley?
Roofline sealant ages in sun and rain. It hardens, shrinks and splits after some years.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Rain getting in around a garage door
Managing a site like Botley School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Botley: your questions answered
Will you come out to Botley?
Yes, Botley is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Oxford station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you guarantee gutter sealing?
All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Do you clean gutters?
We clear debris around the joints we’re sealing. A full clean of the gutters is not part of it.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available.
Outside joints around Botley
With historic houses such as Holywell Manor (about 2.3 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Botley as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For landlords with property near Oxford station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. For an older house near a landmark such as St Peter and St Paul, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.
