Sealing leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascias, soffits and roofline trims in Apse Heath, with a 12-month guarantee on every job. Call for a quick quote.
- Failed sealant on a garage door frame
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
Keep downpipes clear, so water can get away. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.
How we handle gutter sealing in Apse Heath
Failed sealant round a garage door frame lets rain blow in. The frame joint is cut out and resealed using a sealant made for outdoor use. If you’re dealing with garage door frames letting rain in and internal damp traced to a gutter joint, we can put it right, on garage door frames, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias alike.
Older homes in small places like Apse Heath may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water usually gets in.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Why it’s worth doing now in Apse Heath
A bead squeezed onto a wet joint might hold for a while but it tends to peel off. Proper preparation is the difference. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Apse Heath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Outside joints around Apse Heath
Apse Heath is within about 2 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Historic houses like Haseley Manor (about 1.8 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Apse Heath has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Historic houses such as Haseley Manor, about 1.8 miles north-west, show how far back building around Apse Heath goes, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls. Rented homes near Shanklin station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Managing a site like Sandown Bay Academy? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
