Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Five Ashes
Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame using a sealant made for outdoor use. We are often asked to deal with earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off and gaps along fascia and soffit joints, across roofline trims, uPVC fascias and gutter end caps.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Five Ashes is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Five Ashes buildings and the weather
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.
Homes close to Church of the Good Shepherd include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Letting a property close to Crowborough station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
New gutters cost far more than a few resealed joints. If the gutter is sound and the drip is a joint a reseal is all it needs. If it’s broken or sagging, a gutter installer needs to look. Older cottages and farmhouses around Five Ashes can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep downpipes clear
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Standing water strains every seal.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. A reseal sorts it while the frame is sound.
How the job changes by surface
Gutter joints
Joints between gutter lengths are the most common leak point. They’re cleaned out, dried and resealed.
Gutter end caps
Drips from a stop end run down the brickwork. It’s a quick reseal.
When to call us in Five Ashes
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.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
Schools such as Five Ashes CofE Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
