How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It normally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. For a village or hamlet like Potter's Forstal, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- The joint is dried before sealing.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Questions from Potter's Forstal
Do you cover smaller places like Potter's Forstal?
Yes, Potter's Forstal is covered. We work across 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 Pluckley station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
In many cases, yes. A clean, dry joint resealed with gutter sealant normally stops the drip. A split or warped section needs replacing.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
Low-level work is easiest. For anything higher, we’ll confirm what access is needed once we know more.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
Signs you need gutter sealing in Potter's Forstal
A sealant applied to a damp or dirty joint won’t bond. Rushed repairs often do not last long.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Egerton Church of England Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- When the joint can take water or movement
- The length of the guarantee
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
How we quote for gutter sealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Any mould that needs treating
- When we can work, for business premises
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The product the joint needs
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the property is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details, and pictures are welcome.
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Guttering that needs replacing
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
