How we handle gutter sealing in Shalford
Gutter and fascia replacement isn’t our trade, and nor is roofing. Sealant fixes joints and it cannot mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. We work on roofline trims, gutter end caps and soffit joints, and people most often call us about wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint and drips from gutter joints and end caps.
Older homes in small places like Shalford may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water generally gets in.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

The process
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours in most cases. Somewhere like Shalford needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter is not broken or sagging.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. We’ll let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.
What we are called out for in Shalford
End caps get knocked or pushed by water. Once the seal behind them fails, they drip and runs down the wall.
The most common problems we see are:
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- Dripping gutter ends
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Shalford: your questions answered
Is Shalford in your area for gutter sealing?

Is gutter cleaning part of the job?
We clear what’s around the joints we work on. Full gutter cleaning is a separate job.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Walls and rooflines in Shalford
With historic houses such as Guildford Castle (about 1.5 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Shalford as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

Leave it or put it right?
