DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
How we handle gutter sealing in Stapleford
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. 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 roofline trims, uPVC fascias and soffit joints, and people most often call us about stop ends leaking at the end of a run and streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint.
Around Stapleford, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Watch for drips in a downpour
Keep downpipes clear, so water can get away. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.
How we quote for gutter sealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number and length of the joints
- The product the joint needs
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- What’s wrong with the joints now

What happens if it’s left?
Water from a leaking joint hits the same spot every time. Left, it can stain walls and lead to damp, so it’s worth sealing early. In a small place like Stapleford, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.

Gutter sealing in Stapleford: local notes
Historic houses like Aston Bury (about 3.6 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Stapleford has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For landlords with property near Watton-At-Stone station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. Schools such as Stapleford Primary School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
