Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Northwood
Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame with an exterior sealant. We work on soffit joints, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias, and people most often call us about streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint and fascia boards with gaps between them.
In a village or hamlet like Northwood, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.

What gutter sealing looks like in Northwood
Northwood is close to 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. Historic houses like Osborne House (about 2 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Northwood 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.
Schools such as Northwood Primary School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

What the job involves on each surface
uPVC fascias
Our work is the joints, not new fascias. Damaged boards need replacing by an installer.
Roofline trims
We reseal trim joints with an exterior sealant suited to the material.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
Make sure downpipes are not blocked, so water can get away. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. A reseal sorts it.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Why deal with it now?
You don’t need to replace a garage door because rain gets in round the frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough. Around Northwood, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
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’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Northwood
Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Temperature changes make gutters move and that movement opens up tired joints.
Look out for any of the following:
- Dripping gutter ends
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
Homes close to All Saints' Church include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- Are they insured?
- How the colour is chosen
- How long to leave it before use
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Northwood: your questions answered
Does the coastal weather in Northwood affect outside sealant?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Will you come out to Northwood?
Yes, Northwood is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
Often, yes. Cleaning, drying and resealing the joint normally works. If the section is split or warped, it needs replacing.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?
No. A sagging gutter pulls its joints apart, so the brackets need fixing first.
