How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours from start to finish. For a village or hamlet like Oad Street, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter isn’t cracked or sagging.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear the area around the work

Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Oad Street
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. If you’re dealing with water dripping where gutter sections meet and earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Oad Street, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. Where one material meets another is where water usually gets in.

Gutter sealing in Oad Street: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you let a flat or house near Newington station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. If you look after a building such as Borden Church of England Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. Homes close to Church of St Peter and St Paul include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

How the job changes by surface
Soffit joints
Gaps at soffit joints can let in draughts and insects. We close them with a suitable sealant.
Gutter end caps
We seal end caps from the inside where we can reach once clean and dry.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. 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, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Are you insured?

Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
In many cases, yes. A clean, dry joint resealed with gutter sealant generally stops the drip. If the section is split or warped, it needs replacing.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How long should I leave it?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
What sealant work can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- A gutter length that has split
- Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Boards that have decayed or split
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise and avoid disturbing it.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.
Why it’s worth doing now in Oad Street
Replacing fascias because of open joints is normally unnecessary. A neat seal closes the gaps as long as the boards are in good condition. Around Oad Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
