About our gutter sealing in Horspath
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 gutter end caps, uPVC fascias and soffit joints, and the jobs we see most are earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off and stop ends leaking at the end of a run.
In a village or hamlet like Horspath, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, 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.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How we quote for gutter sealing
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- The amount of work
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
- Access and height
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The rough size of the job
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
When something else is needed
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Brackets that have snapped or loosened
- Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A gutter length that has split
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Somewhere like Horspath needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- We clean out each joint.
- The joints are dried.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Soffit joints
Open soffit joints let draughts in. We close them with a suitable sealant.
Gutter joints
When a joint drips, the gutter is often still sound. Resealing is normally enough.
Walls and rooflines in Horspath
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Garsington Manor (about 1.9 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Horspath as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Giles, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Horspath Church of England Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving a leaking end cap can send water down the wall all winter. Resealing it is a quick job compared with treating damp later. In a small place like Horspath, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Common problems we fix in Horspath
Sealant on fascias and trims weathers like any outdoor joint. It hardens, shrinks and splits after some years.
The most common problems we see are:
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Rain getting in around a garage door
Letting a property close to Oxford station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.
