Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Downend

Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That is why we take out the old sealant and dirt first, then dry the joint before sealing. If you have streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint and quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last, we can help.

Older homes in small places like Downend 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.

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

How the job changes by surface

Gutter end caps

End caps take the pressure of water running along the gutter. When their seal fails, they drip.

Soffit joints

Soffit joints are sealed in a colour to suit.

What we can’t put right

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Water backing up from a blocked pipe
  • Boards that have decayed or split
  • Guttering that needs replacing

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

Common problems we fix in Downend

Stop ends take pressure from water running along the gutter. If the seal fails, water escapes at the end and runs down the wall.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
  • Rain getting in around a garage door
  • Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
  • Leaking gutter joints and stop ends

If you look after a building such as Chieveley Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

10 questions to ask before you book

Why deal with it now?

Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts, but it soon lets go. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. Older cottages and farmhouses around Downend can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

  • 180+ five-star Google reviews
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

What gutter sealing looks like in Downend

With historic houses such as Shaw House (about 4.2 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Downend as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.
