Gutter sealing in Brick End

Gutter sealing in Brick End

It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but each shower sends water to the same place. Resealing it is a small job while the gutter is still sound. Common call-outs are for drips from gutter joints and end caps and water running down the wall below the gutter, on soffit joints, gutter joints and uPVC fascias.

Somewhere as small as Brick End, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Joints on those walls need a sealant that moves with the building and stays in place.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Can I do it myself?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What gutter sealing looks like in Brick End

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Horham Hall (about 2.4 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Brick End as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.

What happens on the day

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. For a village or hamlet like Brick End, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. The joint is dried before sealing.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice

How the job changes by surface

Garage door frames

Garage door frames let rain in when their sealant fails. We cut it out and reseal.

uPVC fascias

Joints between fascia boards can open over time. They’re sealed tidily with a matching sealant where possible.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Brick End

I let a flat near Stansted Airport station. Can you help?

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

Can you do gutter sealing in Brick End?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Brick End is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?

Sealant will not hold a sagging gutter. The gutter needs refixing by a gutter installer, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find.

Can you fit new guttering?

Replacement is not our trade. If a gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you so you can call the right trade.

How long before the joint can be used?

Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.

What guarantee comes with the job?

Our 12-month guarantee covers every job.

Can you reach high gutters?

Single-storey and low-level gutters are straightforward. For higher work, tell us about access and we’ll confirm what’s needed.

Looking after it afterwards

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
  • Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
  • Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
  • Check that water runs out of the downpipes

Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise and avoid disturbing it.

A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. Resealing the frame is a quick job while the frame is sound.

What we’re called out for in Brick End

When a gutter sags, its joints open. Resealing a sagging joint will not last so the brackets need attention first.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Garage door frames letting rain in
  • End caps that drip every time it rains
  • Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
  • Gaps along fascia and soffit joints

In the older streets around Church of St Mary the Virgin, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Before booking anyone
