Gutter sealing in Plean

Looking after it afterwards

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
  • Keep downpipes clear
  • Watch for drips in a downpour
  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year

Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.

A drip from a gutter joint will not stop on its own. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.

Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Plean

Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. The frame joint is cut out and resealed using a sealant made for outdoor use. We work on roofline trims, soffit joints and uPVC fascias, and the jobs we see most are fascia boards with gaps between them and end caps that drip every time it rains.

Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Plean depends on the weather. Let us know about access to every wall and roofline.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Choosing a sealant specialist

Different surfaces, different methods

Gutter joints

A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.

Soffit joints

Open soffit joints let draughts in. A neat seal closes them.

Why it’s worth doing now in Plean

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. In a place like Plean, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

How the visit works

Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Outside jobs in Plean need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.

  1. First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. The joint is dried before sealing.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. We check the run and clear debris near the joints.

How to prepare

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
