  • Drips from gutter joints and end caps

Gutter sealing for Southrope homes and businesses

DIY versus a professional finish

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.

Gutter sealing in Southrope

Gaps along uPVC fascias and soffits look untidy and can let in water and draughts. They’re sealed in a matching colour where one is available. If you have dripping gutter ends and drips from gutter joints and end caps, we can put it right, on gutter end caps, gutter joints and roofline trims alike.

External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Southrope is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.

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

How the job changes by surface

Gutter joints

Joints between gutter lengths are the most common leak point. We clean, dry and reseal them.

Gutter end caps

Drips from a stop end run down the brickwork. It’s a small job to fix.

Outside joints around Southrope

With historic houses such as Hall Place (about 3.1 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Southrope as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. 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.

Homes close to Church of St. Mary include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

What affects the cost of gutter sealing

We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

What to tell us for a quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • The rough size of the job
  • The type of property
  • Where the property is

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
  • Guttering that needs replacing
  • Rotten or damaged fascia boards

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

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Gutter joints
  • uPVC fascias

What we’re called out for in Southrope

Water spilling over a blocked gutter is often mistaken for a leak. If the downpipe is blocked, water has nowhere to go so we check the cause first.

Look out for these signs:

  • Cracked sealant along roofline trims
  • Failed sealant on a garage door frame
  • Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
  • Stop ends leaking at the end of a run

If you let a flat or house near Alton station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Before booking anyone

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What insurance they hold
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • Which colour the sealant will be

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about gutter sealing in Southrope

Do you cover smaller places like Southrope?

Yes. Southrope 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.

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

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.

Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?

Yes, as long as the gutter itself is in good order. The joint is cleaned and dried first so the seal holds.

Should I try DIY first?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Do you work on high-level gutters?

Low-level work is easiest. For anything higher, we’ll confirm what access is needed before we book.

Do you hold any approvals?

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

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
  • Glance at the soffit joints now and then
  • Check that water runs out of the downpipes
  • Get leaks sealed before the wet months

Give the sealant the cure time we tell you before poking or cleaning near it.

A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp.

The process

Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. 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. Somewhere as small as Southrope, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
  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. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
