Walls and rooflines in Fickleshole
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Down House (about 2.6 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Fickleshole has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
Homes close to Church of St Leonard include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Managing a site like Fairchildes Primary School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Gutter sealing in Fickleshole, done properly
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Often a reseal is enough, as long as the gutter is sound. Common call-outs are for trim joints where the sealant has failed and leaking gutter joints and stop ends, across gutter joints, roofline trims and soffit joints.
Somewhere as small as Fickleshole, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour now and then. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches inside.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Somewhere like Fickleshole needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Leave it or put it right?
New gutters cost far more than a few resealed joints. If the gutter is sound and the drip is a joint, resealing is the sensible fix. If it’s broken or sagging, a gutter installer needs to look. Older cottages and farmhouses around Fickleshole can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.

Do you need gutter sealing in Fickleshole?
Debris in the gutter keeps water sitting at the joints. Water that can’t drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.
The most common problems we see are:
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
Rented homes near Woldingham 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
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

How long does gutter sealing take?
Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Do you install new fascias or gutters?
Replacement isn’t our trade. If a gutter is broken or sagging, we will tell you so you can call the right trade.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
