About our gutter sealing in Budds
Open fascia and soffit joints spoil the roofline and can let weather in. We seal them in a colour to suit where possible. We work on uPVC fascias, roofline trims and soffit joints, and people most often call us about old gutter sealant that has let go and dripping gutter ends.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Budds is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Budds
Gutter joints depend on seals that wear out. Temperature changes make gutters move and that movement opens up tired joints.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
Homes close to Church of St Giles include some older properties, and an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.
Questions to ask before booking
- What product goes in the joint
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How much experience the applicator has
- What happens if the job turns out different

Budds questions
Do you cover Budds for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Budds is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Will you clear out my gutters?
Only around the joints we seal because the joint must be clean. A full gutter clean is a separate job.
Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?
In most cases, yes. A sagging or cracked gutter needs more than sealant, and we’ll tell you.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Do you install new fascias or gutters?
That is not something we do. Our work is sealing joints; replacing gutters and fascias needs a gutter or roofline installer.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Walls and rooflines in Budds
Historic houses like Ightham Mote (about 0.9 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Budds 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Rented homes near Hildenborough station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Shipbourne School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
Keep downpipes clear, so water can get away. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we’ll tell you.

What affects the cost of gutter sealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether the work is at height
- The number and length of the joints
- Which sealant suits the joint
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

- The address or postcode of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
