About our gutter sealing in Sturry
A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Resealing it is a small job while the gutter is still sound. We work on gutter joints, roofline trims and gutter end caps, and common reasons people get in touch are dripping gutter ends and damp patches inside below a leaking gutter.
Houses in smaller places like Sturry can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, and walls and rooflines facing the weather take the worst of it. Joints on those sides are usually the first to go.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

How the visit works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. A visit to Sturry is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
- The joints are dried.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Move anything stored near the joints

Sturry: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sturry station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Sturry for gutter sealing?
Yes, Sturry is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Do you install new fascias or gutters?
We do not replace gutters or fascias. We’ll tell you if the gutter needs replacing so you can call the right trade.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
How long before the joint can be used?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Why deal with it now?
Sealant won’t clear a blocked downpipe. We look at what’s really happening and tell you if something else is needed. Around Sturry, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
What you get with us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- We are fully insured
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- We leave the area clean and tidy

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
For anyone letting property in or around Sturry, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
When to call us in Sturry
Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Water that cannot drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
Rented homes near Sturry station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

How the job changes by surface
Gutter joints
Joints between gutter lengths are the most common leak point. They’re cleaned out, dried and resealed.
Roofline trims
Trim joints are cut out and resealed suited to the material.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
Give the sealant the cure time we tell you before poking or cleaning near it.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.
What gutter sealing looks like in Sturry
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Managing a site like Sturry Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you live in an older home near St Nicholas' Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
