Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Matching Green
Gaps along uPVC fascias and soffits look untidy and can let in water and draughts. They’re sealed in a matching colour where one is available. We work on gutter joints, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias, and the jobs we see most are earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off and internal damp traced to a gutter joint.
Around Matching Green, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. Where one material meets another is where water generally gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
Gutter end caps
End caps take the pressure of water running along the gutter. A failed seal makes them leak.
uPVC fascias
Gaps in fascias spoil the roofline. A neat bead closes them up.
What happens if it’s left?
A dripping stop end can soak the wall right through the wet months. It’s a small job to put right before the damage spreads. In a small place like Matching Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Why book with us
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- We leave the area clean and tidy
Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

What else we do in Matching Green
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked, so water can get away. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. A reseal sorts it.
What we cannot put right
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Problems with the roof covering
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
- Guttering that needs replacing
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access for a typical job. Somewhere as small as Matching Green, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about any water getting in

What gutter sealing looks like in Matching Green
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Barrington Hall (about 4.1 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Matching Green as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
Letting a property close to Sawbridgeworth station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Mary, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
