Gutter sealing near Kemsley Street

What the job involves on each surface

Garage door frames

Frame-to-brick joints face the weather. An exterior sealant suits them.

Gutter end caps

End caps take the pressure of water running along the gutter. A failed seal makes them leak.

How we handle gutter sealing in Kemsley Street

Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. So the old sealant and grime come out first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. Common call-outs are for end caps that drip every time it rains and drips from gutter joints and end caps, on roofline trims, soffit joints and gutter end caps.

Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Kemsley Street is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Why act early in Kemsley Street

Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts, but it soon lets go. Proper preparation is the difference. Around Kemsley Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Kemsley Street

Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Temperature changes make gutters move, and old seals crack or slip.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
  • Failed sealant on a garage door frame
  • Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
  • Water dripping where gutter sections meet

Schools such as Deanwood Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Before booking anyone

  • How long the guarantee is
  • Whether VAT is included
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared

What happens on the day

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Somewhere as small as Kemsley Street, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
  2. We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
  3. The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
  4. An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Kemsley Street buildings and the weather

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.

In the older streets around Church of St Peter, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. Letting a property close to Rainham (Kent) station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
  • Check that water runs out of the downpipes
  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
  • Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly

If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. Movement will pull the joints open again.

The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.
