What we are called out for in Brickendon
Sealant laid on a wet or dirty joint fails early. Some quick repairs peel off within a season or two for this reason.
The most common problems we see are:
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Rain getting in around a garage door
For landlords with property near Bayford station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

How we handle gutter sealing in Brickendon
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Resealing it is a small job while the gutter is still sound. We work on soffit joints, gutter joints and roofline trims, and common reasons people get in touch are old sealant on roofline trims that has split and failed sealant on a garage door frame.
Older homes in small places like Brickendon may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water normally gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Deal with a drip before winter
Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How it works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours. For a village or hamlet like Brickendon, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
- The joints are dried.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

How the job changes by surface
Soffit joints
Soffit joints are sealed in a colour to suit.
Gutter joints
A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.
For landlords and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Brickendon and across Hertfordshire. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Why deal with it now?
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 a small place like Brickendon, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
