DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
Gutter sealing in Sprat's Down
Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Resealing the joint is often all it needs, as long as the gutter is sound. If you have quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last and damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter, we can help.
Older homes in small places like Sprat's Down may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Why deal with it now?
Replacing guttering is a much bigger job than sealing joints. If the gutter is sound and the drip is a joint, resealing is the sensible fix. If it has failed, we’ll tell you. Around Sprat's Down, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us

What we’re called out for in Sprat's Down
Roofline sealant ages in sun and rain. It goes hard, cracks and pulls away over time.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
Homes close to St George include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Common questions in Sprat's Down
Is gutter sealing in a coastal place like Sprat's Down any different?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.

Roofline trims rely on sealant at their joints. Split sealant lets water in.
What gutter sealing looks like in Sprat's Down
Sprat's Down is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. With historic houses such as Beaulieu Palace House (about 4.7 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Sprat's Down as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Schools such as Fawley Infant School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you let a flat or house near Hamble station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
Clear the gutters once or twice a year so water doesn’t sit on the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. A reseal sorts it while the frame is sound.

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access.
