Their is a guttering connector joining the two properties together.See attached photos How do I get the clip undone on my side so I can put a new guttering section up, if I replace the seal on my side will that effectively seal it or should should I put silicon sealant on the seal??

Hi Wind Gatherer,
We have a good article all about gutters and how you can replace them. There's also a video too if that helps:
