- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last

How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like Boyton Cross, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
Gutter sealing in Boyton Cross
We don’t replace gutters, fascias or roofs. What sealant does is close joints and it cannot mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. Typical jobs include water dripping where gutter sections meet and dripping gutter ends, across uPVC fascias, gutter joints and gutter end caps.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Boyton Cross is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Boyton Cross: your questions answered
Is Boyton Cross in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes, Boyton Cross is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Chelmsford station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?
Yes, it’s a common job. The gaps are cleaned and sealed neatly.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
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.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Different surfaces, different methods
Garage door frames
A fresh seal around the frame stops rain getting in.
Soffit joints
Soffits sit under the eaves, where joints can open up. We seal them to close the gaps.
Why it’s worth doing now in Boyton Cross
Replacing fascias because of open joints is generally unnecessary. Sealing the joints tidies them up as long as the boards are in good condition. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Boyton Cross, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What affects the quote in Boyton Cross
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many areas need sealing

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What’s wrong with the joints now
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
- Brackets that have snapped or loosened
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Gutter sealing in Boyton Cross: local notes
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 Hylands (about 3.8 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Boyton Cross as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
Letting a property close to Chelmsford station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Michael and All Angels, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Schools such as Newlands Spring Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. A small split is quicker to put right.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.
