Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. A visit to Lexden is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance.

- The joints are dried.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- The joints are checked once sealed.

About our gutter sealing in Lexden
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Resealing the joint is often all it needs, as long as the gutter is sound. If you have open joints in fascias and soffits and drips from gutter joints and end caps, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Outbuildings, garages and conservatories around homes in places like Lexden add more joints to look after. Gutter ends, garage door frames and the joints where an extension meets the house are typical spots for leaks.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Gutter sealing in Lexden: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, 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 Philip Morant School and College, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. Letting a property close to Colchester station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. Homes close to Church of St Leonard include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Leave it or put it right?
You do not need to replace a garage door because rain gets in round the frame. Sealing the frame generally stops it, if the frame itself is sound. In a smaller place like Lexden, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
Give the sealant the cure time we tell you before poking or cleaning near it.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp.
