About our gutter sealing in Little Leighs
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 itself has failed, we say so. We work on uPVC fascias, soffit joints and roofline trims, and people most often call us about water running down the wall below the gutter and failed sealant on a garage door frame.
Older homes in small places like Little Leighs may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Little Leighs buildings and the weather
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Homes close to Church of St John the Evangelist include some older properties, and an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. Managing a site like Great Leighs Primary School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Cressing station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

I let a flat near Cressing station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
Yes, as long as the gutter itself is in good order. The joint is cleaned and dried first so the seal holds.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.
Can you reach high gutters?
It depends on the access. Tell us the height and what’s around the gutter and we will confirm what’s needed.
Can you fit new guttering?
We do not replace gutters or fascias. If a gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you.
How long should I leave it?
It depends on the product. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Surface by surface
uPVC fascias
Open fascia joints look untidy and can let water in. Sealing them closes the gap.
Gutter joints
A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.

What affects the quote in Little Leighs
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- The size of the job
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The type of property
- If someone has resealed it before
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- The problem you’ve noticed
To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Keep downpipes clear
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Look along the fascias for open joints
Check the joints after heavy rain. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Why it’s worth doing now in Little Leighs
A bead squeezed onto a wet joint might hold for a while but it tends to peel off. Proper preparation is the difference. Older cottages and farmhouses around Little Leighs can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
