Gutter sealing in Eddington, done properly
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. So the old sealant and grime come out first, then dry the joint before sealing. We work on garage door frames, roofline trims and soffit joints, and common reasons people get in touch are rain getting in around a garage door and old sealant on roofline trims that has split.
In a village or hamlet like Eddington, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere like Eddington needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip 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.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Eddington buildings and the weather
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Schools such as Hungerford Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you let a flat or house near Hungerford station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Why deal with it now?
If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing won’t help. We check the cause first and point you to the right trade if needed. Around Eddington, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Keep ladders off the guttering
A sagging gutter needs its brackets checked. If it drops, the joints will open.
If an end cap is dripping, deal with it before winter. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp inside.
When it isn’t the sealant
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
- Blocked downpipes
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Eddington: your questions answered
I let a flat near Hungerford station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Eddington in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes, Eddington is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can new sealant go over the old?
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.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do you work on high-level gutters?
Single-storey and low-level gutters are straightforward. If it’s higher up, let us know and we will confirm the access.
How long should I leave it?
It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.

When to call us in Eddington
Sagging sections pull joints apart. Sealing will not hold if the gutter keeps dropping, so the gutter needs refixing first.
Look out for these signs:
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
If you live in an older home near Hungerford Methodist Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.
