Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Hare Street
Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. The frame joint is cut out and resealed with an exterior sealant. If you have old sealant on roofline trims that has split and leaking gutter joints and stop ends, we can put it right.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Hare Street is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Common questions in Hare Street
Is gutter sealing in Hare Street guaranteed?
All our work, in Hare Street and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Will you come out to Hare Street?
Yes, Hare Street is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?
No. If the gutter sags, the joints keep opening so it needs refixing before sealing.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Is gutter cleaning part of the job?
We clean the joints we are sealing and any debris nearby is cleared. A full gutter clean is a separate service.
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.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What happens if it’s left?
Sealant will not clear a blocked downpipe. We check the cause first and tell you if something else is needed. In a small place like Hare Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Walls and rooflines in Hare Street
Historic houses like Hill Hall (about 3 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Hare Street has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. 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 Church of St Margaret of Antioch, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
A drip from a gutter joint won’t stop on its own. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall, which can lead to staining and damp.
