About our gutter sealing in Ashingdon

A lot of gutter leaks come down to one tired joint. We clean out the joint, dry it and reseal it using a gutter sealant. If the gutter itself has failed, we say so. We work on uPVC fascias, soffit joints and garage door frames, and the jobs we see most are wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint and end caps that drip every time it rains.

Around Ashingdon, garages, outbuildings and extensions all add to the joints on the outside of a home. Leaks usually start at a gutter end, a garage door frame or where an extension meets the house.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What affects the quote in Ashingdon

You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:

  • The product the joint needs
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Whether the work is at height
  • When we can work, for business premises

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Asking for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Where the property is

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you are ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How the job changes by surface

Gutter joints

Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. They’re cleaned out, dried and resealed.

Soffit joints

Open soffit joints let draughts in. We close them with a suitable sealant.

Gutter sealing in Ashingdon: local notes

With historic houses such as Southchurch Hall (about 4.9 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Ashingdon as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Andrew, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Rented homes near Hockley station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Common problems we fix in Ashingdon

Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Temperature changes make gutters move, and old seals crack or slip.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter
  • Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
  • Water dripping where gutter sections meet
  • Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint

Schools such as King Edmund School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Why act early in Ashingdon

A dripping gutter joint keeps wetting the same patch of wall. Left, it can stain walls and lead to damp, so it’s worth sealing early. Homes in smaller places like Ashingdon can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Why book with us

  • Full insurance on every job
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • Tidy, careful work
  • Over 20 years’ experience

What we do, step by step

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. The job usually takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Parking around Ashingdon is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. First we agree which joints need sealing.
  2. We clean out each joint.
  3. The joints are dried.
  4. We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
  5. We check our work before we leave.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Ashingdon questions

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hockley station?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.

Is Ashingdon in your area for gutter sealing?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Ashingdon is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

What information do you need?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.

Is gutter cleaning part of the job?

We clear what’s around the joints we work on. Full gutter cleaning is a separate job.

Do the sealants smell?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Do I have to be there?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
