Gutter sealing in Capel
For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. So the old sealant and grime come out first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. We work on garage door frames, uPVC fascias and roofline trims, and the jobs we see most are old gutter sealant that has let go and leaking gutter joints and stop ends.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Capel is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. Splits are easier to seal early.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.
Capel 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.
Rented homes near Paddock Wood station change hands often, and leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. In the older streets around Church of St Thomas à Becket, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Capel questions
Can you do gutter sealing in Capel?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Capel is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Capel within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you reach high gutters?
Single-storey work is the most straightforward. For anything higher, we’ll confirm what access is needed once we know more.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
Do you install new fascias or gutters?
No. Our work is sealing joints; replacing gutters and fascias needs a gutter or roofline installer.
How long does gutter sealing take?
Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Is gutter cleaning part of the job?
We clear what’s around the joints we work on. Full gutter cleaning is a separate job.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
When to call us in Capel
When a gutter sags, its joints open. Resealing a sagging joint will not last, so the gutter needs refixing first.
The most common problems we see are:
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
Schools such as Capel Primary School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Related advice
Why deal with it now?
Leaving a leaking end cap can send water down the wall all winter. It’s a small job to put right before the damage spreads. Older cottages and farmhouses around Capel can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
