Advice
Gutter sealing in Tilty
Failed sealant round a garage door frame lets rain blow in. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame with an exterior sealant. We are often asked to deal with damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter and quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last, on uPVC fascias, soffit joints and roofline trims.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Tilty is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Why deal with it now?
A dripping stop end can soak the wall right through the wet months. Resealing it is a quick job before the damage spreads. In a small place like Tilty, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Why us?
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- We leave the area clean and tidy

When to call us in Tilty
Debris in the gutter keeps water sitting at the joints. Standing water finds the weakest joint and leaks out.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Dripping gutter ends
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
Homes close to Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

What gutter sealing looks like in Tilty
Historic houses like Horham Hall (about 2 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Tilty has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you let a flat or house near Stansted Airport station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.
