How we handle gutter sealing in Five Oaks
Gutter and fascia replacement isn’t our trade, and nor is roofing. Sealant fixes joints and it can’t mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. We work on garage door frames, uPVC fascias and gutter end caps, and people most often call us about end caps that drip every time it rains and old sealant on roofline trims that has split.
Around Five Oaks, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Somewhere like Five Oaks 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.
- We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter is not broken or sagging.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Related advice
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Boards that have decayed or split
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
- Sagging gutters or broken brackets
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Five Oaks
A sealant applied to a damp or dirty joint will not bond. Some quick repairs peel off within a season or two for this reason.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
Rented homes near Billingshurst station change hands often, and leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.
Before booking anyone
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the colour is chosen
- What product goes in the joint
- How long to leave it before use
What happens if it’s left?
Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts but it tends to peel off. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. Older cottages and farmhouses around Five Oaks can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Deal with a drip before winter
Keep downpipes clear, so water can get away. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.
