Can I do it myself?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

About our gutter sealing in Stratfield Saye

We work across Stratfield Saye on leaking gutter joints and roofline trims. Single-storey and low gutters are simple to reach, and for higher work, tell us about access and we’ll confirm what’s needed. Common call-outs are for leaking gutter joints and stop ends and dripping gutter ends, on roofline trims, garage door frames and gutter end caps.

Somewhere as small as Stratfield Saye, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Joints on those walls need a sealant that moves with the building and stays in place.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Stratfield Saye and across West Berkshire.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stratfield Saye

Replacing fascias because of open joints is usually unnecessary. Sealing the joints tidies them up as long as the boards are in good condition. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Stratfield Saye, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What we’re called out for in Stratfield Saye

Stop ends take pressure from water running along the gutter. If the seal fails, water escapes at the end.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter
  • Old gutter sealant that has let go
  • Rain getting in around a garage door
  • Dripping gutter ends

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Whether they’re fully insured

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Sort out a dripping joint early
  • Check the gutters during heavy rain
  • Glance at the soffit joints now and then
  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters

Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.

The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we’ll tell you.

How it works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Somewhere like Stratfield Saye needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked 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 are there.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Gutter joints

When a joint drips, the gutter is often still sound. Sealing the joint often stops it.

Gutter sealing in Stratfield Saye: local notes

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Stratfield Saye House (about 1.1 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Stratfield Saye has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.

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

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Usually, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.

Does someone need to be in?

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.

Do you install new fascias or gutters?

That is not something we do. Our work is sealing joints and replacement is a job for an installer.

Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?

Yes. We seal open joints along fascias and soffits in a matching colour.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
