Stroud Common buildings and the weather
Historic houses like Chilworth Manor (about 3.1 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Stroud Common has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. 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.
In the older streets around Christ Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Rented homes near Chilworth station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. Schools such as Wonersh and Shamley Green CofE Aided Primary School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Gutter sealing in Stroud Common
Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. We clean out the joint, dry it and reseal it using a gutter sealant. If the gutter is broken or sagging, we will tell you. We are often asked to deal with quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last and water running down the wall below the gutter, across soffit joints, gutter end caps and gutter joints.
Around Stroud Common, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. Where one material meets another is where water generally gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

How we quote for gutter sealing
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The size of the job
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- If someone has resealed it before
- Roughly how big the job is
If you are in Stroud Common and need gutter sealing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
Check the joints after heavy rain. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours from start to finish. For a village or hamlet like Stroud Common, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
Stroud Common: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Chilworth station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you do gutter sealing in Stroud Common?
Yes, Stroud Common is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
How much does gutter sealing cost in Stroud Common?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Do you replace gutters or fascias?
No, we reseal joints and trims. A gutter installer or roofer deals with replacement.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can you seal fascia and soffit joints?
Yes. Open joints along uPVC fascias and soffits can be sealed in a colour to suit.
How long does gutter sealing take?
Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Gutter joints
Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. We clean, dry and reseal them.
Garage door frames
Frame-to-brick joints face the weather. An exterior sealant suits them.
Leave it or put it right?
If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing won’t help. We check the cause first and point you to the right trade if needed. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stroud Common can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
