Gutter sealing in Crockleford Heath, done properly

Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. We clean out the joint, dry it and reseal it with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter is broken or sagging, we will tell you. Typical jobs include dripping gutter ends and streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint, across roofline trims, soffit joints and garage door frames.

Somewhere as small as Crockleford Heath, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Honest limits

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:

  • Problems with the roof covering
  • Sagging gutters or broken brackets
  • Boards that have decayed or split

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Soffit joints
  • uPVC fascias
  • Gutter end caps
  • Garage door frames
  • Roofline trims
  • Gutter joints

Can I do it myself?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

What the job involves on each surface

Soffit joints

Soffit joints are sealed in a colour to suit, where one is available.

uPVC fascias

Joints between fascia boards can open over time. We seal them neatly with a matching sealant where possible.

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

What happens if it’s left?

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter
  • Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
  • Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
  • Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Colchester Academy, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

What affects the quote in Crockleford Heath

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

How it works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access from start to finish. For a village or hamlet like Crockleford Heath, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
  2. We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
  3. The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
  5. The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Clear the area around the work
