How we handle gutter sealing in Ifold
A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Sealing it is quick while the gutter is still sound. If you’re dealing with stop ends leaking at the end of a run and internal damp traced to a gutter joint, we can help, whatever the surface.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Ifold is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What affects the cost of gutter sealing
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Access and height
- The type of sealant required
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The old material and how stubborn it is
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
When to call us in Ifold
Water spilling over a blocked gutter is often mistaken for a leak. If the downpipe is blocked, water has nowhere to go, which is why we look before we seal.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Dripping gutter ends
Homes close to St John the Baptist include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- What insurance they hold
- Whether you can choose the colour
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
Common questions in Ifold
Is there a guarantee on gutter sealing in Ifold?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover Ifold for gutter sealing?
Yes, Ifold is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can you fit new guttering?
No, we reseal joints and trims. A gutter installer or roofer deals with replacement.
Can you seal fascia and soffit joints?
Yes. We seal open joints along fascias and soffits in a colour to suit.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
How the job changes by surface
uPVC fascias
Gaps in fascias spoil the roofline. A neat bead closes them up.
Roofline trims
Trim joints are cut out and resealed suited to the material.
The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. For a village or hamlet like Ifold, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ifold
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
For anyone letting property in or around Ifold, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. Splits are easier to seal early.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. We’ll let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.
