Choosing a sealant specialist

About our gutter sealing in Cootham

Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Often a reseal is enough, as long as the gutter is sound. Typical jobs include fascia boards with gaps between them and trim joints where the sealant has failed, on gutter end caps, gutter joints and roofline trims.

Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Cootham is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.

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.

Gutter sealing in Cootham: local notes

With historic houses such as Parham House (about 1.1 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Cootham as well as newer homes. In older buildings, 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, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

Historic houses such as Parham House, about 1.1 miles west, show how far back building around Cootham goes, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.

Can I do it myself?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the 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.

Landlord and commercial work in Cootham

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

What we do, step by step

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours from start to finish. In a small place like Cootham, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
  2. We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
  3. The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
  4. An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice

How to look after the new joints

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Keep ladders off the guttering
  • Look along the fascias for open joints
  • Check the gutters during heavy rain
  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters

Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.

If an end cap is dripping, deal with it before winter. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
  • Rotten or damaged fascia boards
  • Blocked downpipes

If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
