Gutter sealing in Finchingfield, done properly
Failed sealant round a garage door frame lets rain blow in. The frame joint is cut out and resealed with an exterior sealant. We work on gutter end caps, roofline trims and uPVC fascias, and the jobs we see most are rain getting in around a garage door and wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Finchingfield is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Somewhere like Finchingfield 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.
- 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.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Make sure downpipes are not blocked
Check the joints after heavy rain. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry.
Leave it or put it right?
Sealant will not clear a blocked downpipe. We check the cause first and point you to the right trade if needed. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Finchingfield, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

Walls and rooflines in Finchingfield
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St John the Baptist, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
