About our gutter sealing in Meriden
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Often a reseal is enough, as long as the gutter is sound. We’re often asked to deal with water running down the wall below the gutter and leaking gutter joints and stop ends, across gutter end caps, soffit joints and gutter joints.
Around Meriden, garages, outbuildings and extensions all add to the joints on the outside of a home. Gutter ends, garage door frames and the joints where an extension meets the house are typical spots for leaks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Parking around Meriden is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- We clean out each joint.
- The joints are dried.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
Getting 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 the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

What else we do in Meriden
Walls and rooflines in Meriden
With historic houses such as High Elms Manor (about 1.6 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Meriden as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you live in an older home near St Peter's Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. If you look after a building such as The Grove Academy, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

How the job changes by surface
Gutter joints
A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.
Garage door frames
A fresh seal around the frame stops rain getting in.
Signs you need gutter sealing in Meriden
End caps get knocked or pushed by water. Once the seal behind them fails, they drip and runs down the wall.
Look out for these signs:
- Dripping gutter ends
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint

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

Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Can you fit new guttering?
That is not something we do. Our work is sealing joints and replacement is a job for an installer.
Will sealing fix a sagging gutter?
Sealant will not hold a sagging gutter. The gutter needs refixing by a gutter installer.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
How do I get a quote for gutter sealing in Meriden?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
What information do you need?

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Make sure downpipes are not blocked
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Look along the fascias for open joints
Check the joints after heavy rain now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job while the frame is sound.
