Gutter sealing in Tilehurst

Gutter sealing in Tilehurst, done properly

Our work covers gutter joints and end caps as well as fascias and soffits, along with roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s all about the joints rather than new guttering. Typical jobs include cracked sealant along roofline trims and open joints in fascias and soffits, on roofline trims, garage door frames and gutter end caps.

In a smaller place like Tilehurst, some homes face open ground, and walls and rooflines facing the weather take the worst of it. That’s where gutter joints and wall joints tend to fail first.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tilehurst as everywhere else we work.

How to look after the new joints

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Sort out a dripping joint early
  • Look along the fascias for open joints
  • Keep downpipes clear
  • Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly

Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss so water doesn’t sit on the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.

Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job while the frame is sound.

What happens if it’s left?

If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing won’t help. We check the cause first and point you to the right trade if needed. Around Tilehurst, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

When to call us in Tilehurst

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

Look out for these signs:

  • Drips from gutter joints and end caps
  • Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter
  • Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
  • Rain getting in around a garage door

If you look after a building such as Park Lane Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Choosing a sealant specialist

The process

Once we’re 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 a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. A visit to Tilehurst is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. First we agree which joints need sealing.
  2. Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
  3. The joints are dried.
  4. We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
  5. The joints are checked once sealed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Related advice

Walls and rooflines in Tilehurst

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Mapledurham House (about 1.6 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Tilehurst has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.

For an older house near a landmark such as Tilehurst Methodist Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. For landlords with property near Tilehurst station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.
