Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Shenleybury
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first, then dry the joint before sealing. We work on uPVC fascias, soffit joints and gutter end caps, and people most often call us about streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint and leaking gutter joints and stop ends.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Shenleybury is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Shenleybury and across Hertfordshire.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Shenleybury needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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 area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Gutter sealing in Shenleybury: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Wyllyotts Manor (about 4.1 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Shenleybury as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
Homes close to St Botolphs include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Clore Shalom School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Shenleybury
Do you cover smaller places like Shenleybury?
Yes, Shenleybury is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Radlett station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
It depends on the access. Tell us the height and what’s around the gutter and we’ll confirm what’s needed.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Do you guarantee gutter sealing?
Our 12-month guarantee applies on every job.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
In many cases, yes. Cleaning, drying and resealing the joint usually works. If the section is split or warped, it needs replacing.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we’re fully insured.
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Deal with a drip before winter
Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss so water does not sit on the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
A drip from a gutter joint will not stop on its own. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall and that can cause damp inside.
Why deal with it now?
You don’t need to replace a garage door because rain gets in round the frame. Sealing the frame normally stops it, if the frame itself is sound. In a small place like Shenleybury, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
