About our gutter sealing in Brentwood
Open fascia and soffit joints spoil the roofline and can let weather in. They’re sealed in a matching colour where one is available. If you have fascia boards with gaps between them and stop ends leaking at the end of a run, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Brentwood mixes older houses and their gutters with newer estates of brick, render and uPVC trims. Gutter joints, fascia trims and the movement joints in newer brickwork all need sealant that can flex.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Brentwood and everywhere else we cover.
What affects the cost of gutter sealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The product the joint needs
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height

Your questions about gutter sealing in Brentwood
What guarantee comes with gutter sealing in Brentwood?
All our work, in Brentwood and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you work for landlords with property near Brentwood station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you reach high gutters?
Single-storey work is the most straightforward. For anything higher, we will confirm what access is needed once we know more.
Do you work in Brentwood?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, and that includes Brentwood.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
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 compared with treating damp later. In Brentwood, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and early is when they’re cheapest and quickest to sort.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Why us?
- Colour agreed with you before work begins
- Full insurance on every job
- We never seal over old sealant
- 20+ years of sealant experience

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Gutter sealing in Brentwood: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Ingatestone Hall (about 4.4 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Brentwood has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Becket Keys Church of England School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Thomas of Canterbury, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. If you let a flat or house near Brentwood station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep downpipes clear
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
Make sure downpipes are not blocked so the gutter can drain. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access for a typical job. For a job in Brentwood, we need access to where the work is and somewhere nearby to park. For outside work, let us know about side access, gates and any upper-floor joints.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
