Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in California
Failed sealant round a garage door frame lets rain blow in. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame with an exterior sealant. If you have streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint and old sealant on roofline trims that has split, we can help.

How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like California, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- The joint is dried before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Getting ready for the visit

Signs you need gutter sealing in California
Roofline sealant ages in sun and rain. It goes hard, cracks and pulls away over time.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Gorse Ride Junior School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep downpipes clear
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
Check the joints after heavy rain now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches.
California: your questions answered
I let a flat near Crowthorne station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, 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.
Can you do gutter sealing in California?
Yes, California is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Will sealing fix a sagging gutter?
Sealant won’t hold a sagging gutter. The gutter needs refixing by a gutter installer, and we will tell you if that is what we find.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee applies on every job.
Should I try DIY first?
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.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
In most cases, yes. If the gutter is sagging or cracked, sealing won’t last, and we will tell you.
California buildings and the weather
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
In the older streets around Church of St James, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Letting a property close to Crowthorne station? Then leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
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.
