Streat Gutter Sealing
Problem with your gutter and fascia joints in Streat? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
How it works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access in most cases. Somewhere as small as Streat, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

About our gutter sealing in Streat
We don’t replace gutters, fascias or roofs. Sealant fixes joints; it won’t fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. We work on garage door frames, roofline trims and gutter joints, and common reasons people get in touch are rain getting in around a garage door and dripping gutter ends.
Somewhere as small as Streat, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Sort out a dripping joint early
Keep downpipes clear so the gutter can drain. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. A reseal sorts it while the frame is sound.
Quotes for gutter sealing in Streat

Why it’s worth doing now in Streat
A dripping gutter joint keeps wetting the same patch of wall. Over time that can stain brickwork, mark render and encourage damp, so it’s worth sealing early. Around Streat, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How the job changes by surface
Garage door frames
Garage door frames let rain in when their sealant fails. It’s removed and renewed.
Gutter joints
A dripping joint does not always mean a failed gutter. Resealing is generally enough.
What gutter sealing looks like in Streat
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you live in an older home near Streat Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. Letting a property close to Plumpton station? Then leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. If you look after a building such as Plumpton Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Streat: your questions answered
I let a flat near Plumpton station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you cover Streat for gutter sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Streat is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
How long does gutter sealing take?
Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Will sealing fix a sagging gutter?
Not on its own. A sagging gutter pulls its joints apart, so the brackets need fixing first.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
