How we handle gutter sealing in Swanwick

Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. The joint is cleaned, dried and resealed with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter itself has failed, we say so. If you have damp patches inside below a leaking gutter and cracked sealant along roofline trims, we can help.

External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Swanwick is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Why deal with it now?

Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts, but it soon lets go. Proper preparation is the difference. In a small place like Swanwick, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

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

DIY versus a professional finish

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Gutter sealing in Swanwick: local notes

Swanwick is within about 3 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. 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.

If you look after a building such as Sarisbury Church of England Junior School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. Rented homes near Bursledon station change hands often, and leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Paul, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Swanwick is about 2 miles south of Hedge End, in Hampshire. We provide gutter sealing to homeowners, landlords and businesses in Swanwick and nearby, as part of our work across Hampshire. Swanwick is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire we cover.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Rotten or damaged fascia boards
  • Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
  • Leaks from the roof rather than a joint

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Aftercare tips

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Don’t leave a sagging gutter
  • Watch for drips in a downpour
  • Look along the fascias for open joints
  • Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked

A sagging gutter needs its brackets checked. Movement will pull the joints open again.

If an end cap is dripping, deal with it before winter. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches inside.

Surface by surface

Roofline trims

Trim joints are cut out and resealed suited to the material.

Garage door frames

Garage door frames let rain in when their sealant fails. We cut it out and reseal.

How it works

Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Somewhere as small as Swanwick, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
  2. Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
  3. We make sure the joint is dry before sealing.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
  5. The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
