DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Gutter sealing in Southwood, done properly
For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. That is why we take out the old sealant and dirt first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. We work on gutter joints, garage door frames and gutter end caps, and people most often call us about drips from gutter joints and end caps and rain getting in around a garage door.
In a smaller place like Southwood, some homes face open ground, so exposed walls and rooflines take more wind-driven rain. That is where gutter joints and wall joints tend to fail first.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. In a smaller place like Southwood, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- We check our work before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Southwood, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Keep downpipes clear
Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss so water does not sit on the joints. Standing water strains every seal.
Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall and that can cause damp inside.

Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Southwood buildings and the weather
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.
If you let a flat or house near Fleet station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. In the older streets around St John the Baptist, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Fascias that need replacing
- Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A gutter length that has split

How the job changes by surface
Roofline trims
Roofline trims rely on sealant at their joints. Split sealant lets water in.
Garage door frames
Failed sealant around a garage door frame lets water in. We cut it out and reseal.
Signs you need gutter sealing in Southwood
Sagging sections pull joints apart. Resealing a sagging joint won’t last, so the gutter needs refixing first.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
Schools such as Southwood Infant School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.
