About our gutter sealing in Lydd
We don’t replace gutters, fascias or roofs. What sealant does is close joints; it won’t fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. We work on gutter joints, gutter end caps and garage door frames, and common reasons people get in touch are earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off and end caps that drip every time it rains.
In a smaller place like Lydd, some homes face open ground, and walls and rooflines facing the weather take the worst of it. That is where gutter joints and wall joints tend to fail first.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Gutter joints
When a joint drips, the gutter is often still sound. Sealing the joint often stops it.
Gutter end caps
Drips from a stop end run down the brickwork. It’s a small job to fix.
Lydd: your questions answered
Do you cover Lydd for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Lydd is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is Lydd within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you clean gutters?
Only around the joints we seal because the joint must be clean. A full gutter clean is a separate job.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
Normally, if the gutter is sound. We clean and dry the joint before sealing so the sealant bonds.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Parking around Lydd is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- The joint is dried before sealing.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

What else we do in Lydd
Outside joints around Lydd
Lydd is within about 3 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces 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.
Managing a site like Lydd Primary School? Then 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 All Saints Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Sort out a dripping joint early
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. Splits are easier to seal early.
A drip from a gutter joint will not stop on its own. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.
What affects the cost of gutter sealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The product the joint needs
- How many areas need sealing
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number and length of the joints
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.
