Gutter sealing in Picketts Lock, done properly
Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. The joint is cleaned, dried and resealed with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you. We work on gutter joints, soffit joints and uPVC fascias, and the jobs we see most are old sealant on roofline trims that has split and fascia boards with gaps between them.
Working on the outside of a London home means planning access: shared paths, upper floors and parking. For a home in Picketts Lock, tell us how high the joints are and how to reach the back of the building.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Why it’s worth doing now in Picketts Lock
You do not need to replace a garage door because rain gets in round the frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough, if the frame itself is sound. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Picketts Lock, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- We agree the colour with you first
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- Neat joints and a tidy finish

Gutter sealing in Picketts Lock: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. London terraces and converted houses often share gutters, downpipes and walls, so check who is responsible for the outside before booking.
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. Picketts Lock is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

What affects the cost of gutter sealing
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- The type of sealant required
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Helping us quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The rough size of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- The joint is dried, because sealant won’t bond to a wet surface.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
Ask for a quote
We don’t publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Advice
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Standing water strains every seal.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.
What the job involves on each surface
Roofline trims
Sealing roofline trims is joint work only. A roofer deals with the roof itself.
Soffit joints
Soffit board joints can separate over time. They’re sealed to tidy the line.
When to call us in Picketts Lock
Overflowing gutters can look like leaking joints. If the downpipe is blocked, water has nowhere to go so we check the cause first.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
For landlords with property near Ponders End station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
