Gutter sealing near Codicote

Gutter sealing in Codicote, done properly

We work across Codicote on leaking gutter joints and roofline trims. Single-storey and low gutters are simple to reach, and for higher work, tell us about access and we’ll confirm what’s needed. If you have stop ends leaking at the end of a run and water dripping where gutter sections meet, we can put it right, on roofline trims, uPVC fascias and soffit joints alike.

Outbuildings, garages and conservatories around homes in places like Codicote add more joints to look after. Gutter ends, garage door frames and the joints where an extension meets the house are typical spots for leaks.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Should I try it myself first?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Walls and rooflines in Codicote

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. With historic houses such as Shaw's Corner (about 1.7 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Codicote as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.

For landlords with property near Knebworth station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. Homes close to Parish Church of St Giles include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

What happens on the day

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. For a job in Codicote, 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.

  1. We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
  2. The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We check the run and clear debris near the joints.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Advice

How to look after the new joints

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Look at the gutters while it’s raining
  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
  • Keep downpipes clear
  • Keep ladders off the guttering

While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. Splits are easier to seal early.

A drip from a gutter joint will not stop on its own. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall, which can lead to staining and damp.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Codicote and across Hertfordshire. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured for the work.

When to call us in Codicote

Gutter joints depend on seals that wear out. Temperature changes make gutters move and that movement opens up tired joints.

The problems people normally mention when they call are:

  • Garage door frames letting rain in
  • Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
  • Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
  • End caps that drip every time it rains

Managing a site like Codicote Church of England Primary School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • How hidden problems are handled
  • What guarantee comes with the work
