Trusted gutter sealing in Robertsbridge

Gutter sealing in Robertsbridge, done properly

Open fascia and soffit joints spoil the roofline and can let weather in. We seal them in a colour to suit where possible. If you’re dealing with open joints in fascias and soffits and garage door frames letting rain in, we can help.

Around Robertsbridge, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.

Questions from Robertsbridge

Is Robertsbridge within the area you cover?

Do you cover Robertsbridge for gutter sealing?

Where are you based?

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?

No. A sagging gutter pulls its joints apart so it needs refixing before sealing.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.

What we are called out for in Robertsbridge

Water spilling over a blocked gutter is often mistaken for a leak. A blocked downpipe makes water back up, which is why we look before we seal.

People normally contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
  • Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
  • Old gutter sealant that has let go
  • Water dripping where gutter sections meet

Managing a site like Salehurst Church of England Primary School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

What to look for in a quote

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint

  3. We make sure the joint is dry before sealing.
  4. Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
  5. We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.

Walls and rooflines in Robertsbridge

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Durhamford Manor (about 3.8 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Robertsbridge as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.

If you let a flat or house near Robertsbridge station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. In the older streets around Robertsbridge United Reformed Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

DIY versus a professional finish

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
  • Downpipes that are blocked or broken
  • Brackets that have snapped or loosened

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
  • Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
  • Have sagging gutters refixed early
  • Clear leaves and moss from the gutters

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 won’t stop on its own. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.

How the job changes by surface

Soffit joints

Gaps at soffit joints can let in draughts and insects. A neat seal closes them.

Garage door frames

Failed sealant around a garage door frame lets water in. We cut it out and reseal.
