Landlords, agents and businesses in Friern Barnet
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Gutter sealing in Friern Barnet
We do not replace gutters, fascias or roofs. Sealant fixes joints; it will not fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. If you have open joints in fascias and soffits and trim joints where the sealant has failed, we can put it right.
Outside work in London starts with access: side passages, upper floors and where to park. For a home in Friern Barnet, tell us how high the joints are and how to reach the back of the building.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What affects the quote in Friern Barnet
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of sealant required
- The amount of work
- The number of rooms or windows
- How easy the joints are to reach
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The rough size of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved.
How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. In Friern Barnet, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Getting ready for the visit
- 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 if the joints have been sealed before
How to get a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.

Common problems we fix in Friern Barnet
Sagging sections pull joints apart. Sealing won’t hold if the gutter keeps dropping, so the gutter needs refixing first.
Look out for any of the following:
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
For landlords with property near New Southgate station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.
What to look for in a quote
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why

- Whether you can choose the colour

What gutter sealing looks like in Friern Barnet
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Heath Hall (about 2.7 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Friern Barnet as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Friern Barnet is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. For an older house near a landmark such as St John's Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Watch for drips in a downpour
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. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches.

Questions from Friern Barnet
Is parking an issue for gutter sealing in Friern Barnet?
Parking in Friern Barnet, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near New Southgate station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before any work starts.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Bigger jobs take longer.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
