Gutter sealing in Great Horkesley

What guarantee comes with the job?

Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
What happens if it’s left?
A new garage door isn’t needed for a leaking frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough, if the frame itself is sound. In an older home around Great Horkesley, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
uPVC fascias
Fascia board joints can open up. We seal them neatly in a suitable colour.
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. An exterior sealant suits them.
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Keep downpipes clear
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise and avoid disturbing it.
A drip from a gutter joint won’t stop on its own. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.
Great Horkesley buildings and the weather
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. If you look after a building such as The Bishop William Ward Church of England Primary School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. For landlords with property near Colchester station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
