South Acton buildings and the weather
Historic houses like Gunnersbury Park (about 0.3 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around South Acton has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. In terraces and conversions, gutters and walls are often shared with the neighbours, so it’s worth agreeing who is responsible before work starts.
If you let a flat or house near South Acton station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ark Acton Academy, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

How we handle gutter sealing in South Acton
Our work covers gutter joints and end caps as well as fascias and soffits plus roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work, not replacing the gutter. We work on gutter end caps, roofline trims and soffit joints, and common reasons people get in touch are rain getting in around a garage door and wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint.
Modern London flats rely on sealed movement joints and cladding joints. Period houses have different weak points, such as gutter joints, trims and the line where an extension meets the old wall, and both kinds of building are found across London.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. In South Acton, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- We clean out each joint.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- We check our work before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit

What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Sort out a dripping joint early
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise and avoid disturbing it.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job.
What the job involves on each surface
Roofline trims
Roofline trims rely on sealant at their joints. When it splits, water can get behind.
Garage door frames
Garage door frames let rain in when their sealant fails. We cut it out and reseal.
What we’re called out for in South Acton
Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Sun and cold make the gutter expand and contract, and old seals crack or slip.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Dripping gutter ends
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- What insurance they hold
- Is VAT in the price?
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
