What affects the quote in Swaythling

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size of the job
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How many areas need sealing

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Helping us quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • The type of property
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

If you’re in Swaythling and need gutter sealing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we will agree the price before any work begins.

Gutter sealing in Swaythling

Gutter and fascia replacement is not our trade, and nor is roofing. Sealant fixes joints and it can’t mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. Typical jobs include drips from gutter joints and end caps and damp patches inside below a leaking gutter, on garage door frames, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias.

Houses in smaller places like Swaythling can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, so exposed walls and rooflines take more wind-driven rain. Joints on those sides are usually the first to go.

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

Gutter sealing in Swaythling: local notes

Historic houses like South Stoneham House (about 0.3 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Swaythling has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

Letting a property close to Swaythling station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. Homes close to St. Mary's Church include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Swaythling

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

How it works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Parking around Swaythling is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
  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. We check the run and clear debris near the joints.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

How to look after the new joints

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Get leaks sealed before the wet months
  • Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
  • Look along the fascias for open joints
  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year

Give the sealant the cure time we tell you and avoid disturbing it.

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

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into 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.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

What we’re called out for in Swaythling

Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Standing water finds the weakest joint and drips through.

Look out for these signs:

  • Garage door frames letting rain in
  • Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
  • Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
  • Fascia boards with gaps between them

Schools such as Mansbridge Primary School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.
