Gutter sealing in Maple Cross

For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first, then dry the joint before sealing. We are often asked to deal with streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint and fascia boards with gaps between them, across gutter end caps, uPVC fascias and garage door frames.

External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Maple Cross is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
  • Glance at the soffit joints now and then
  • Keep downpipes clear
  • Sort out a dripping joint early

Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.

Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry and the wall below.

When it isn’t the sealant

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
  • Boards that have decayed or split
  • Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How it works

We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. In a small place like Maple Cross, access is usually 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 is not damaged.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean 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

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any tricky access

What we’re called out for in Maple Cross

Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Standing water finds the weakest joint and leaks out.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
  • Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
  • Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
  • Old sealant on roofline trims that has split

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Maple Cross

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Rickmansworth station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.

Is Maple Cross in your area for gutter sealing?

Yes, Maple Cross is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.

How long should I leave it?

Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.

Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?

Yes. Open joints along uPVC fascias and soffits can be sealed in a matching colour.

Will you clear out my gutters?

Only around the joints we seal, so the sealant can bond. Cleaning the whole run is a separate job.

What about gutters on a second or third storey?

Single-storey and low-level gutters are straightforward. If it’s higher up, let us know and we will confirm the access.

Do I need to be at home?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Leave it or put it right?

A bead squeezed onto a wet joint might hold for a while but it tends to peel off. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. Around Maple Cross, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Why us?

  • Domestic, commercial and hotel work
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Old sealant always removed completely

Gutter sealing in Maple Cross: local notes

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Chenies Manor House (about 3.7 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Maple Cross has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.

For landlords with property near Rickmansworth station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. In the older streets around Church of St Thomas of Canterbury, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.
