Colgate Gutter Sealing
Gutter and fascia joints in Colgate need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
How we handle gutter sealing in Colgate
Gaps along uPVC fascias and soffits look untidy and can let in water and draughts. They’re sealed in a matching colour where one is available. We’re often asked to deal with open joints in fascias and soffits and internal damp traced to a gutter joint, on roofline trims, gutter end caps and garage door frames.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Colgate is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
When to call us in Colgate
Stop ends take pressure from water running along the gutter. If the seal fails, water escapes at the end and runs down the wall.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
Rented homes near Faygate station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Is VAT in the price?
- What insurance they hold
- How the colour is chosen
Why deal with it now?
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 Colgate can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Why Colgate customers choose us
- Tidy, careful work
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. In a small place like Colgate, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us about any water getting in

Gutter sealing in Colgate: local notes
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. With historic houses such as Tyes Place (about 4.5 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Colgate as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
If you live in an older home near St. Saviour's Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Managing a site like Colgate Primary School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

A little further out are Crawley Museum (3.4 miles north-east) and County Mall (3.4 miles north-east). Not far away are Tilgate Lake and Warnham LNR.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep downpipes clear
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
Give the sealant the cure time we tell you and avoid disturbing it.
If an end cap is dripping, deal with it before winter. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp.
Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Guttering that needs replacing
- Brackets that have snapped or loosened
- Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
