Common problems we fix in Hookwood

Debris in the gutter keeps water sitting at the joints. Standing water finds the weakest joint and drips through.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
  • Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
  • Water dripping where gutter sections meet
  • Failed sealant on a garage door frame

In the older streets around Church of St Bartholomew, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

How we handle gutter sealing in Hookwood

Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. We are often asked to deal with cracked sealant along roofline trims and internal damp traced to a gutter joint, across gutter end caps, roofline trims and soffit joints.

External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Hookwood is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What happens on the day

At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Hookwood, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

Advice

Why act early in Hookwood

Replacing fascias because of open joints is generally unnecessary. Sealing the joints tidies them up if the boards are sound. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hookwood, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

For landlords and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

Landlords and agents in Hookwood can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

What affects the quote in Hookwood

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The number and length of the joints
  • How many areas need sealing
  • The product the joint needs

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: 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.

Asking for a quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Walls and rooflines in Hookwood

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.

If you look after a building such as Manorfield Primary and Nursery School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. Rented homes near Horley station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Looking after it afterwards

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Check the gutters during heavy rain
  • Have sagging gutters refixed early
  • Deal with a drip before winter
  • Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint

A sagging gutter needs its brackets checked. If it drops, the joints will open.

A drip from a gutter joint will not stop on its own. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.
