Dorking buildings and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Polesden Lacey (about 2.7 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Dorking has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Rented homes near Dorking Deepdene 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 Paul, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

How we handle gutter sealing in Dorking
Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. The joint is cleaned, dried and resealed with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter is broken or sagging, we will tell you. We work on gutter joints, gutter end caps and soffit joints, and people most often call us about gaps along fascia and soffit joints and quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last.
Plenty of homes in a town like Dorking have been extended, and the joint where new wall meets old is a classic place for water to get in. Sealing it properly means the right joint depth and a flexible sealant, not a quick bead.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Make sure downpipes are not blocked
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Look along the fascias for open joints
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour. 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 inside.
How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. 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. A visit in Dorking needs access to the work and a place to park close by. If the job is outside, mention gates, side access and anything above ground floor.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- The joint is dried, because sealant won’t bond to a wet surface.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

What affects the cost of gutter sealing
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- When we can work, for business premises
- The size of the job
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the job is, and your postcode
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
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.

What we are called out for in Dorking
Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Standing water finds the weakest joint and leaks out.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- End caps that drip every time it rains
If you look after a building such as St Paul's CofE (Aided) Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Questions from Dorking
I let a flat near Dorking Deepdene 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 email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is Dorking in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Dorking is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
