Bitterne Park buildings and the weather
Bitterne Park is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. With historic houses such as South Stoneham House (about 0.9 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Bitterne Park as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
If you live in an older home near Church of Ascension, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. If you let a flat or house near Bitterne station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

For landlords and businesses

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. For a job in Bitterne Park, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
Why deal with it now?
You do not need to replace a garage door because rain gets in round the frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough, if the frame itself is sound. Around Bitterne Park, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Quotes for gutter sealing in Bitterne Park
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- When we can work, for business premises
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any mould that needs treating
- Access and height
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Roughly how big the job is
- The address or postcode of the job
- The type of property
- How we’d reach the joints

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
- Rotten or damaged fascia boards
- Brackets that have snapped or loosened
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Gutter joints
