How we handle gutter sealing in Plumstead
Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame with an exterior sealant. If you have old sealant on roofline trims that has split and quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last, we can put it right.
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, and both kinds of building are found across London.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Can you seal fascia and soffit joints?

What should I tell you?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do you clean gutters?
We clean the joints we’re sealing and clear debris we find nearby. A full gutter clean is a separate service.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
That depends on the building. Tell us the height and what’s around the gutter and we will confirm what’s needed.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Sealant won’t hold a sagging gutter. A gutter installer needs to refix it, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find.
Do you need gutter sealing in Plumstead?
Sealant on fascias and trims weathers like any outdoor joint. It goes hard, cracks and pulls away over time.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
What happens if it’s left?
If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing will not help. We look at what’s really happening and point you to the right trade if needed. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in Plumstead, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
