Yarbridge Gutter Sealing

Should I try it myself first?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

What gutter sealing looks like in Yarbridge

Yarbridge is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Historic houses like Morton Manor (about 0.1 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Yarbridge 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.

Letting a property close to Brading station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. For an older house near a landmark such as St. Mary's Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Brading Church of England Controlled Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
