Gutter sealing in Thatcham
A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, but each shower sends water to the same place. Resealing it is a small job if the gutter is otherwise in good order. We work on uPVC fascias, soffit joints and roofline trims, and common reasons people get in touch are failed sealant on a garage door frame and leaking gutter joints and stop ends.
In a town like Thatcham, older houses with traditional gutters sit alongside newer estates with uPVC rooflines and rendered walls. All of those joints move, so they need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Do you cover Thatcham for gutter sealing?

Do you guarantee gutter sealing?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, gutter and fascia work included.
Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?
In most cases, yes. If the gutter is sagging or cracked, sealing will not last, and we’ll tell you.
Can you fit new guttering?
Replacement is not our trade. We will tell you if the gutter needs replacing so you can call the right trade.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Is it worth trying it myself?
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.
How long does gutter sealing take?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving a leaking end cap can send water down the wall all winter. It’s a small job to put right compared with treating damp later. In Thatcham, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and early is when they’re cheapest and quickest to sort.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Common problems we fix in Thatcham
Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Water that can’t drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Water dripping where gutter sections meet
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
Homes close to United Reformed Church include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

What gutter sealing looks like in Thatcham
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 Shaw House (about 2.7 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Thatcham has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
For landlords with property near Thatcham station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. If you look after a building such as Spurcroft Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

What’s near Thatcham

A little further out are Old Chapel Textile Centre (2.2 miles south-west) and West Berkshire Community Hospital (1.5 miles west). For a walk, there’s Nature Discovery Centre.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
A drip from a gutter joint won’t stop on its own. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall and that can cause damp inside.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours. In Thatcham, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
