Gutter sealing in Burghclere Common

For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first, then dry the joint before sealing. If you are dealing with dripping gutter ends and garage door frames letting rain in, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Older homes in small places like Burghclere Common may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.

We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Why act early in Burghclere Common

New gutters cost far more than a few resealed joints. If the gutter is sound and the drip is a joint a reseal is all it needs. If it has failed, we will tell you. In a small place like Burghclere Common, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What you get with us

  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • More than 20 years in sealant work

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not leave a sagging gutter
  • Look at the gutters while it’s raining
  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
  • Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked

Have a look at the gutter during a downpour. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.

A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Burghclere Common

Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Water that cannot drain works its way through a weak joint and leaks out.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Old gutter sealant that has let go
  • Dripping gutter ends
  • Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
  • Rain getting in around a garage door

Managing a site like The Clere School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Soffit joints

Open soffit joints let draughts in. A neat seal closes them.

Garage door frames

The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. An exterior sealant suits them.

Outside joints around Burghclere Common

Historic houses like Highclere Castle (about 2.7 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Burghclere Common has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

If you let a flat or house near Newbury station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. If you live in an older home near Church of the Ascension, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

What we do, step by step

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run, and the area is left clean. Somewhere as small as Burghclere Common, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
  2. The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

Before we arrive

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice

Questions from Burghclere Common

Can you do gutter sealing in Burghclere Common?

Yes, Burghclere Common is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.

I let a flat near Newbury station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 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.

Is there any odour?

Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.

How long will you be here?

Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Do you clean gutters?

We clear debris near the joints because the joint must be clean. Cleaning the whole run is a separate job.

When is the sealant fully cured?

Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.
