Why it’s worth doing now in Jack's Hatch
A new garage door isn’t needed for a leaking frame. Sealing the frame usually stops it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Jack's Hatch, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Why us?
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Colour agreed with you before work begins
- Tidy, careful work

How we handle gutter sealing in Jack's Hatch
Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. We clean out the joint, dry it and reseal it with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include gaps along fascia and soffit joints and damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter, across gutter joints, garage door frames and soffit joints.
Somewhere as small as Jack's Hatch, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Jack's Hatch as everywhere else we work.

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Look along the fascias for open joints
Check the joints after heavy rain. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job while the frame is sound.
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Outside joints around Jack's Hatch
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.
If you look after a building such as Water Lane Primary Academy, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. For an older house near a landmark such as St James with St Luke, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. Rented homes near Roydon station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Do you cover Jack's Hatch for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Jack's Hatch is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Do you work for letting agents?

Can new sealant go over the old?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Can you match the sealant colour?

How the visit works
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. In a small place like Jack's Hatch, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
