About our gutter sealing in Hempstead
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but each shower sends water to the same place. Resealing it is a small job while the gutter is still sound. We work on uPVC fascias, garage door frames and gutter end caps, and common reasons people get in touch are quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last and open joints in fascias and soffits.
Somewhere as small as Hempstead, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Joints on those walls need a sealant that moves with the building and stays in place.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Sort out a dripping joint early
Check the joints after heavy rain. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches.
What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Gutter sealing in Hempstead: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In and around Hempstead, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Common problems we fix in Hempstead
When a gutter sags, its joints open. Sealing won’t hold if the gutter keeps dropping so the brackets need attention first.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Water dripping where gutter sections meet
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Andrew, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

What affects the cost of gutter sealing
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Access and height
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number and length of the joints
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

Leave it or put it right?
A dripping gutter joint keeps wetting the same patch of wall. Left, it can stain walls and lead to damp, so it’s worth sealing early. In a small place like Hempstead, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
