Trusted gutter sealing in Yapton

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run, depending on how much there is to do. For a job in Yapton, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

How we handle gutter sealing in Yapton

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, not replacing the gutter. We work on soffit joints, gutter joints and garage door frames, and people most often call us about cracked sealant along roofline trims and internal damp traced to a gutter joint.

Houses in smaller places like Yapton can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, and walls and rooflines facing the weather take the worst of it. Joints on those sides are usually the first to go.

Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Yapton and across West Sussex.

Yapton questions

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

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.

Do you cover smaller places like Yapton?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?

Sealant won’t hold a sagging gutter. A gutter installer needs to refix it.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.

Do I have to be there?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?

Yes, as long as the gutter itself is in good order. We clean and dry the joint before sealing so the sealant bonds.

Is it messy?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Different surfaces, different methods

Gutter end caps

End caps are resealed where they meet the gutter, after cleaning and drying.

Soffit joints

Soffit joints are sealed in a colour to suit.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
  • Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
  • Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
  • Look at the gutters while it’s raining

If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. If it drops, the joints will open.

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

Walls and rooflines in Yapton

Yapton is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. 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.

Managing a site like Yapton CE Primary School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

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

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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. Everything old must be removed first.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Yapton

Overflowing gutters can look like leaking joints. If the downpipe is blocked, water has nowhere to go so we check the cause first.

The problems people normally mention when they call include:

  • Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
  • Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
  • Trim joints where the sealant has failed
  • Gaps along fascia and soffit joints

For landlords with property near Barnham station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.
