About our gutter sealing in West Green
Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. The joint is cleaned, dried and resealed with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for water running down the wall below the gutter and quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last, on uPVC fascias, gutter end caps and garage door frames.
Homes around West Green range from older cottages to newer houses, with walls and rooflines of every type. Older homes need their gutter and trim joints kept tight, newer ones their movement joints.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Outside joints around West Green
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. West Green is part of Crawley, one of the post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades and were built in phases, so whole streets can have gutters, trims and wall joints reaching the end of their life together.
If you live in an older home near Voice of Deliverance Full Gospel Church of God, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Schools such as West Green Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Keep downpipes clear
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
Check the joints after heavy rain now and then. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches.

The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, depending on the size of the job. In a smaller place like West Green, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
- 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.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, 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 need the right product, the right access and the right method.
West Green questions
I let a flat near Crawley station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Should the sealant in an older West Green home be renewed?
Normally, yes, if it’s cracked, shrunk, mouldy or coming away. New sealant will not stick to old, so the old bead has to come out completely first.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
Low gutters are simple to reach. If it’s higher up, let us know and we will confirm the access.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Do you replace gutters or fascias?
No, we reseal joints and trims. Replacement needs a gutter installer or roofer.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.

Common problems we fix in West Green
Sealant on fascias and trims weathers like any outdoor joint. It goes hard, cracks and pulls away after some years.
Look out for any of the following:
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
If you let a flat or house near Crawley station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
