How the visit works

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. The work usually takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. In a smaller place like Riverhead, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter isn’t broken or sagging.
  2. Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
  3. The joint is dried, because sealant won’t bond to a wet surface.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
  5. We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice

About our gutter sealing in Riverhead

For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. So the old sealant and grime come out first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. If you have old gutter sealant that has let go and streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Outbuildings, garages and conservatories around homes in places like Riverhead add more joints to look after. Leaks generally start at a gutter end, a garage door frame or where an extension meets the house.

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

For landlords and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Riverhead buildings and the weather

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. With historic houses such as Knole House (about 2 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Riverhead as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. Rented homes near Sevenoaks station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Questions from Riverhead

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

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.

Will you come out to Riverhead?

Yes. Riverhead is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

How long does gutter sealing take?

It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. We will give you a better idea when we quote.

Do you replace gutters or fascias?

No, we reseal joints, end caps and trims. Replacement needs a gutter installer or roofer.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?

Yes. Our work is the joints and we’ll let you know if a board has failed.

Does someone need to be in?

It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.

What sealant work cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • Problems with the roof covering
  • Blocked downpipes
  • Gutters that have dropped or pulled away

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

What we seal

  • Roofline trims
  • Garage door frames
  • Gutter end caps
  • Gutter joints
  • uPVC fascias
  • Soffit joints

How to look after the new joints

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Get leaks sealed before the wet months
  • Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
  • Check the gutters during heavy rain
  • Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself

While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. A small split is quicker to put right.

Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. We will let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.

What happens if it’s left?

Replacing guttering is a much bigger job than sealing joints. Where the gutter is in good order and only a joint leaks, resealing is the sensible fix. If it’s broken or sagging, a gutter installer needs to look. Homes in smaller places like Riverhead can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
