Gutter sealing in Ratcliff, done properly
Gaps along uPVC fascias and soffits look untidy and can let in water and draughts. They’re sealed in a matching colour where possible. If you are dealing with trim joints where the sealant has failed and rain getting in around a garage door, we can help.
Working on the outside of a London home means planning access: shared paths, upper floors and parking. In Ratcliff, joints up high may need ladders or other access, which is worth talking through when you book.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ratcliff as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. We will let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
- Brackets that have snapped or loosened
- Water backing up from a blocked pipe
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What the job involves on each surface
Gutter joints
Gutter joints move and sit in water. A dedicated gutter sealant suits them.
uPVC fascias
Our work is the joints, not new fascias. Damaged boards need replacing by an installer.
What affects the cost of gutter sealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it’s a home or a business
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
Ratcliff: your questions answered
I let a flat near Limehouse station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Ratcliff in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes, Ratcliff is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?
Yes, it’s a common job. The gaps are cleaned and sealed neatly.
Do you work on high-level gutters?
Single-storey work is the most straightforward. For anything higher, we’ll confirm what access is needed once we know more.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We will explain which colours are available.
Why deal with it now?
New gutters cost far more than a few resealed joints. If the gutter is sound and the drip is a joint a reseal is all it needs. If it has failed, we will tell you. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Dealing with it early is far simpler.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Why us?
- Fully insured
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Over 20 years’ experience

Walls and rooflines in Ratcliff
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. Historic houses like Mansion House (about 1.9 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Ratcliff has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Marion Richardson Primary School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you let a flat or house near Limehouse station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

What we’re called out for in Ratcliff
Sealant laid on a wet or dirty joint fails early. Some quick repairs peel off within a season or two.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Dripping gutter ends
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Water dripping where gutter sections meet
For an older house near a landmark such as Royal Foundation of St Katharine, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What product goes in the joint
How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access, including the tidy-up. 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.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not 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.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
