Gutter sealing in Burghfield
Gutter and fascia replacement is not our trade, and nor is roofing. Sealant fixes joints; it will not fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. We work on roofline trims, gutter end caps and garage door frames, and people most often call us about old sealant on roofline trims that has split and wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Burghfield is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

- Any working-time requirements on site

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the property is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email

Common questions in Burghfield
Do you cover smaller places like Burghfield?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Theale station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
How much does gutter sealing cost in Burghfield?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
In many cases, yes. Cleaning, drying and resealing the joint normally works. If the section is split or warped, it needs replacing.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before any work starts.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Do you replace gutters or fascias?
No. Our work is sealing joints and replacement is a job for an installer.
Do you need gutter sealing in Burghfield?
Debris in the gutter keeps water sitting at the joints. Water that can’t drain works its way through a weak joint and leaks out.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Rain getting in around a garage door
Homes close to Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Outside joints around Burghfield
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House (about 4.8 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Burghfield as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
If you let a flat or house near Theale station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. If you look after a building such as Burghfield St Mary's C.E. Primary School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving a leaking end cap can send water down the wall all winter. Resealing it is a quick job before the damage spreads. Older cottages and farmhouses around Burghfield can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Sort out a dripping joint early
Make sure downpipes are not blocked so the gutter can drain. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Resealing early protects the boards.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
