Keeping the joints in good condition

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
  • Sort out a dripping joint early
  • Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
  • 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’ll tell you.

Gutter sealing in Loxford

We work across Loxford on leaking gutter joints and roofline trims. Low-level work is straightforward, and for higher work, tell us about access and we’ll confirm what’s needed. We work on soffit joints, gutter joints and gutter end caps, and common reasons people get in touch are end caps that drip every time it rains and streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint.

Newer London blocks are built with movement joints in brick and render, and with cladding joints sealed with mastic. Period houses have different weak points, such as gutter joints, trims and the line where an extension meets the old wall.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Loxford as everywhere else we work.

Gutter joints

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

Soffit joints

Soffits sit under the eaves, where joints can open up. We seal them to close the gaps.

Common questions in Loxford

Do you cover Loxford for gutter sealing?

Yes, Loxford is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Do you work for landlords with property near Barking station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Do I have to be there?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.

Can you fit new guttering?

Replacement is not our trade. If a gutter is broken or sagging, we will tell you so you can call the right trade.

Can I do it myself?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

How long before the joint can be used?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.

How it works

We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Loxford. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.

  1. First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
  2. The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We check the run and clear debris near the joints.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Common problems we fix in Loxford

Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Sun and cold make the gutter expand and contract, and old seals crack or slip.

The problems people generally mention when they call include:

  • Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
  • Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
  • Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
  • Water dripping where gutter sections meet

Homes close to St Luke's Church include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

What to look for in a quote

  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether you can choose the colour

Choosing a sealant specialist

What affects the quote in Loxford

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

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Access and height
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Any mould that needs treating

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Helping us quote

To make quoting easier, let us know:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • The type of property
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.

Gutter sealing in Loxford: local notes

London terraces and converted houses often share gutters, downpipes and walls, so check who is responsible for the outside before booking. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

Schools such as Woodlands Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. As a London address, Loxford can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Loxford is about 3 miles north-east of Plaistow, in Greater London. Anywhere in IG1, we cover gutter sealing for homes and businesses. Loxford is one of 764 places in Greater London we cover. We also work in London, about 8 miles from Loxford.

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Loxford

A new garage door isn’t needed for a leaking frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough, if the frame itself is sound. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Loxford, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
