About our gutter sealing in Stock
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. So the old sealant and grime come out first, then dry the joint before sealing. Typical jobs include drips from gutter joints and end caps and earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off, across soffit joints, gutter joints and garage door frames.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Stock is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What gutter sealing looks like in Stock
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Ingatestone Hall (about 2.5 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Stock as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
If you let a flat or house near Billericay station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. Managing a site like Stock Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. 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.
Stock is about 3 miles north-east of Billericay, in Essex. Across the CM4 area, we cover gutter sealing for homes and businesses. Stock is one of 644 places in Essex where we work.

What happens if it’s left?
A dripping gutter joint keeps wetting the same patch of wall. Left, it can stain walls and lead to damp, so it’s worth sealing early. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Stock, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

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.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Stock and across Essex. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
A drip from a gutter joint will not stop on its own. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall, which can lead to staining and damp.
How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours. For a village or hamlet like Stock, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Common questions in Stock
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Billericay station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Stock within the area you cover?
Yes, Stock is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is sealing fascia joints something you do?
Yes. We seal the joints, not replace the boards and we’ll let you know if a board has failed.
Do you clean gutters?
The joints we seal are cleaned out and any debris nearby is cleared. Cleaning the whole run is a different job.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Not on its own. If the gutter sags, the joints keep opening so it needs refixing before sealing.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
Yes, as long as the gutter itself is in good order. The joint is cleaned and dried first so the sealant bonds.
