Gutter sealing in Oakridge

Signs you need gutter sealing in Oakridge

Sealant laid on a wet or dirty joint fails early. Rushed repairs often don’t last long.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
  • Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
  • End caps that drip every time it rains
  • Fascia boards with gaps between them

If you look after a building such as The Vyne Community School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

What your quote should include

  • What product goes in the joint
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • Whether you can choose the colour

Our hiring checklist

Gutter sealing in Oakridge, done properly

Gutter and fascia replacement isn’t our trade, and nor is roofing. Sealant fixes joints; it will not fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. Typical jobs include failed sealant on a garage door frame and old sealant on roofline trims that has split, across garage door frames, uPVC fascias and soffit joints.

In a smaller place like Oakridge, some homes face open ground, so exposed walls and rooflines take more wind-driven rain. Joints on those sides are normally the first to go.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Leave it or put it right?

Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts, but it soon lets go. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. In an older home around Oakridge, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why choose Mr Mastic in Oakridge

  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • Colour agreed with you before work begins
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

What sealant work can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • Downpipes that are blocked or broken
  • Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
  • Brackets that have snapped or loosened

Oakridge questions

Do you work for landlords with property near Basingstoke station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Is Oakridge within the area you cover?

Yes. Oakridge is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Do you replace gutters or fascias?

We do not replace gutters or fascias. If a gutter is broken or sagging, we will tell you so you can call the right trade.

Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?

In most cases, yes. A sagging or cracked gutter needs more than sealant and we’ll say so.

When is the sealant fully cured?

It depends on the product. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.

What information do you need?

A short description and the location. We will ask anything else we need to know.

Oakridge buildings and the weather

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like The Vyne (about 2.6 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Oakridge has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.

Homes close to Ruins Of Chapel Of The Holy Trinity include some older properties, and an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. Rented homes near Basingstoke station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Keep ladders off the guttering
  • Look along the fascias for open joints
  • Watch for drips in a downpour
  • Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked

Have a look at the gutter during a downpour now and then. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.

Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we’ll tell you.

How it works

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Parking around Oakridge is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter is not broken or sagging.
  2. The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
  3. The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
  4. An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Advice

Different surfaces, different methods

Gutter end caps

A leaking end cap sends water straight down the wall. It’s a small job to fix.

uPVC fascias

Our work is the joints, not new fascias. If boards are damaged, we’ll tell you.
