Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Little Bentley
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, 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’re often asked to deal with garage door frames letting rain in and damp patches inside below a leaking gutter, across gutter end caps, garage door frames and roofline trims.
Older homes in small places like Little Bentley may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water normally gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we have gone.

For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
The process
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work usually takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Somewhere as small as Little Bentley, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Why it’s worth doing now in Little Bentley
Replacing fascias because of open joints is generally unnecessary. Sealing the joints tidies them up if the boards are sound. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Little Bentley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

What gutter sealing looks like in Little Bentley
Historic houses like Thorpe Hall (about 4.7 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Little Bentley has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. If you let a flat or house near Great Bentley station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

How the job changes by surface
Gutter joints
Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. We clean, dry and reseal them.
uPVC fascias
Fascia board joints can open up. They’re sealed tidily with a matching sealant where possible.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep downpipes clear
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Watch for drips in a downpour
Check the joints after heavy rain. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
If an end cap is dripping, deal with it before winter. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp.
