How the visit works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access in most cases. Somewhere like Ickleford needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided 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.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
How we handle gutter sealing in Ickleford
We seal leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascia and soffit joints, along with roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work rather than new guttering. We work on garage door frames, gutter end caps and gutter joints, and the jobs we see most are drips from gutter joints and end caps and streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint.
Somewhere as small as Ickleford, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Joints on those walls need a sealant that moves with the building and stays in place.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

What affects the quote in Ickleford
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The size of the job
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The type of sealant required
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Surface by surface
Garage door frames
Garage door frames let rain in when their sealant fails. It’s removed and renewed.
uPVC fascias
Our work is the joints, not new fascias. Damaged boards need replacing by an installer.
Gutter sealing in Ickleford: local notes
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.
If you look after a building such as Ickleford Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. Homes close to Church of St Katharine include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Letting a property close to Hitchin station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Ickleford
Will you come out to Ickleford?
Yes, Ickleford is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Hitchin station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
How long does gutter sealing take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
Low-level work is easiest. For anything higher, we will confirm what access is needed before we book.
Will you clear out my gutters?
We clean the joints we’re sealing and clear debris we find nearby. A full gutter clean is a separate service.
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Why act early in Ickleford
Sealant won’t clear a blocked downpipe. We check the cause first and tell you if something else is needed. Around Ickleford, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Why book with us
- Full insurance on every job
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- You choose the colour before work begins
