Gutter sealing in Inkpen, done properly
A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, 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, gutter end caps and soffit joints, and people most often call us about dripping gutter ends and failed sealant on a garage door frame.
In a village or hamlet like Inkpen, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

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.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Outside joints around Inkpen
With historic houses such as Stargroves (about 3.2 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Inkpen as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you let a flat or house near Kintbury station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. Homes close to Church of St Michael include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Schools such as Inkpen Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

What else we do in Inkpen
The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, depending on how much there is to do. For a village or hamlet like Inkpen, 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.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- 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 check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
New gutters cost far more than a few resealed joints. Where the gutter is in good order and only a joint leaks a reseal is all it needs. If it’s broken or sagging, a gutter installer needs to look. Around Inkpen, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

How we quote for gutter sealing
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
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.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How we’d reach the joints
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved and give you a clear quote.
Inkpen: your questions answered
Do you cover Inkpen for gutter sealing?
Yes, Inkpen is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Inkpen?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Not on its own. A sagging gutter pulls its joints apart so it needs refixing before sealing.
Is the work guaranteed?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, gutter and fascia work included.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
Keep downpipes clear so the gutter can drain. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
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.
