What happens on the day
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours. In a small place like Loves Green, 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 won’t bond to a wet surface.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
Gutter sealing in Loves Green
We seal leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascia and soffit joints plus roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work rather than new guttering. If you have cracked sealant along roofline trims and old gutter sealant that has let go, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Loves Green, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Loves Green and everywhere else we cover.

Questions from Loves Green
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ingatestone station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Loves Green in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Loves Green is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we’ll quote it together.
Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?
No. If the gutter sags, the joints keep opening, so the brackets need fixing first.
Do you work on high-level gutters?
Single-storey work is the most straightforward. For anything higher, we will confirm what access is needed once we know more.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
Check the joints after heavy rain now and then. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. We will let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Why deal with it now?
You do not need to replace a garage door because rain gets in round the frame. Sealing the frame normally stops it. In a small place like Loves Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Loves Green
Overflowing gutters can look like leaking joints. A blocked downpipe makes water back up, which is why we look before we seal.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Failed sealant on a garage door frame
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
If you let a flat or house near Ingatestone station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Gutter sealing in Loves Green: local notes
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. Historic houses like Hylands (about 2.8 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Loves Green has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Managing a site like Highwood Primary School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. Homes close to St Paul's Church include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
