DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
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.
Gutter sealing in Latimer
A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Resealing it is a small job while the gutter is still sound. We work on uPVC fascias, soffit joints and roofline trims, and people most often call us about earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off and rain getting in around a garage door.
Older homes in small places like Latimer may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What else we do in Latimer
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep downpipes clear
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Deal with a drip before winter
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. A small split is quicker to put right.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.
Walls and rooflines in Latimer
Historic houses like Chenies Manor House (about 1.1 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Latimer has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Managing a site like Little Chalfont Primary School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. In the older streets around Church of St Mary Magdalene, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.
Latimer is about 2 miles east of Amersham, in Buckinghamshire.

How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. In a small place like Latimer, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
Why act early in Latimer
Leaving a leaking end cap can send water down the wall all winter. It’s a small job to put right compared with treating damp later. In a small place like Latimer, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

- Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run

Do you clean gutters?

Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
What guarantee comes with the job?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work.
How long does gutter sealing take?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
Often, yes. A clean, dry joint resealed with gutter sealant usually stops the drip. A split or warped section needs replacing.
How the job changes by surface
