How we handle gutter sealing in Newnham
Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Often a reseal is enough, as long as the gutter is sound. Typical jobs include streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint and cracked sealant along roofline trims, on uPVC fascias, gutter joints and garage door frames.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Newnham is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Common problems we fix in Newnham
Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Standing water finds the weakest joint and drips through.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Dripping gutter ends
For landlords with property near Baldock station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How long to leave it before use
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
Leave it or put it right?
Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts but it tends to peel off. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. Around Newnham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
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.
Common questions in Newnham
Will you come out to Newnham?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Baldock station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?
Usually, if the gutter is sound. We clean and dry the joint before sealing so the sealant bonds.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
What affects the cost of gutter sealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The product the joint needs
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Newnham buildings and the weather
Historic houses like Hinxworth Place (about 1.4 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Newnham 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. 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.
If you look after a building such as The Knights Templar School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Vincent, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.
