Gutter sealing in The Frenches
We do not replace gutters, fascias or roofs. Sealant fixes joints and it can’t mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. If you have end caps that drip every time it rains and water running down the wall below the gutter, we can put it right.
Older homes in small places like The Frenches may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water usually gets in.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Somewhere like The Frenches needs a little journey planning: 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 trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Walls and rooflines in The Frenches
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Mottisfont Abbey (about 3.1 miles north) are a reminder that the area around The Frenches 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.
If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Signs you need gutter sealing in The Frenches
Sealant laid on a wet or dirty joint fails early. Some quick repairs peel off within a season or two.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
Letting a property close to Mottisfont & Dunbridge station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

What the job involves on each surface
Gutter joints
Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. We clean, dry and reseal them.
Gutter end caps
We seal end caps from the inside where we can reach, after cleaning and drying.
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
If you manage several properties in or around The Frenches, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Deal with a drip before winter
Make sure downpipes are not blocked, so water can get away. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp inside.
