Gutter sealing near Hammer Bottom

About our gutter sealing in Hammer Bottom

It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Resealing it is a small job while the gutter is still sound. We work on gutter joints, garage door frames and roofline trims, and the jobs we see most are gaps along fascia and soffit joints and cracked sealant along roofline trims.

Somewhere as small as Hammer Bottom, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When it isn’t the sealant

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before work begins. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Brackets that have snapped or loosened
  • Rotten or damaged fascia boards
  • Blocked downpipes

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

How we quote for gutter sealing

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • The type of sealant required
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • When we can work, for business premises

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

What we need to know

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • If someone has resealed it before

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.

For landlords and businesses

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

For anyone letting property in or around Hammer Bottom, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.

Gutter sealing in Hammer Bottom: local notes

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Peter, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Letting a property close to Haslemere station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Schools such as Woolmer Hill School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

How it works

Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Somewhere like Hammer Bottom needs a little journey planning: 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. First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

How the job changes by surface

Gutter joints

Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. We clean, dry and reseal them.

Soffit joints

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

Leave it or put it right?

Replacing fascias because of open joints is usually unnecessary. Sealing the joints tidies them up as long as the boards are in good condition. In a small place like Hammer Bottom, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

How do I get a quote for gutter sealing in Hammer Bottom?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
