What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. The work usually takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Somewhere as small as Shillingford, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked 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.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
Gutter sealing in Shillingford
We don’t replace gutters, fascias or roofs. Sealant fixes joints; it will not fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. Typical jobs include fascia boards with gaps between them and water running down the wall below the gutter, on uPVC fascias, garage door frames and gutter joints.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Shillingford is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Shillingford and across Oxfordshire.

Walls and rooflines in Shillingford
Historic houses like Brightwell Manor (about 1.8 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Shillingford has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In the older streets around Church of St Lawrence, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. If you let a flat or house near Cholsey station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Do you need gutter sealing in Shillingford?
Sagging sections pull joints apart. Resealing a sagging joint won’t last so the brackets need attention first.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Water dripping where gutter sections meet
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
If you look after a building such as St Laurence Church of England (A) School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Shillingford
I let a flat near Cholsey station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Shillingford within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. 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 do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
What does gutter sealing cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?
In many cases, yes. Cleaning, drying and resealing the joint usually works. A split or warped section needs replacing.
Is sealing fascia joints something you do?
Yes, it’s a common job. The gaps are cleaned and sealed neatly with a suitable exterior sealant.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
How the job changes by surface
Roofline trims
Trims along the roofline are often finished with sealant. When it splits, water can get behind.
Garage door frames
Failed sealant around a garage door frame lets water in. It’s removed and renewed.
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
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. If we find a bigger problem, we’ll tell you.
What affects the cost of gutter sealing
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Access and height
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Any working-time requirements on site
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
