Gutter sealing in Howt Green

Gutter sealing in Howt Green

We work across Howt Green on leaking gutter joints and roofline trims. Low-level work is straightforward and if it’s higher up, let us know and we will confirm what access is needed. If you have old sealant on roofline trims that has split and gaps along fascia and soffit joints, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

In a village or hamlet like Howt Green, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, 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.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How we quote for gutter sealing

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

  • Whether the work is at height
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Any mould that needs treating

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What we need to know

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • The type of property

Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.

The process

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. In a small place like Howt Green, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. The joint is dried before sealing.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. We check the run and clear debris near the joints.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Why it’s worth doing now in Howt Green

Water from a leaking joint hits the same spot every time. Left, it can stain walls and lead to damp so early sealing is worthwhile. Older cottages and farmhouses around Howt Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Should I try it myself first?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Howt Green buildings and the weather

Howt Green is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much 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 Regis Manor Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. In the older streets around Church of St Bartholomew, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

What we can’t put right

  • A gutter length that has split
  • Downpipes that are blocked or broken
  • Rotten or damaged fascia boards

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

  • Gutter joints
  • Roofline trims
  • Soffit joints

Questions from Howt Green

Does the coastal weather in Howt Green affect outside sealant?

Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.

I let a flat near Kemsley station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Can you fit new guttering?

We do not replace gutters or fascias. We will tell you if the gutter needs replacing.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.

Can I do it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

What does gutter sealing cost?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Do you guarantee gutter sealing?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

When to call us in Howt Green

Stop ends take pressure from water running along the gutter. Once the seal behind them fails, they drip and runs down the wall.

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

  • Garage door frames letting rain in
  • Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
  • Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
  • Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last

Letting a property close to Kemsley station? Then leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What the cure time is
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
