Gutters & sealing
Gutters, sealing & exterior maintenance
Gutter clearing, re-sanding, sealing and regrouting, on their own or added to a roof, driveway or patio clean.
How we do it
Inspection
We inspect the gutters or surfaces, check access and condition, and separate cleaning work from repairs that need another trade.
Clear quotation
Your quote lists the agreed work, including optional re-sanding, sealing or regrouting, plus drying time and weather needs.
Cleaning and preparation
Surfaces are cleaned and prepared to suit the material. For sealing and joint work, good preparation is essential.
Finishing and aftercare
We explain any aftercare, such as keeping traffic off a sealed area while it cures.
Professional gutter cleaning
Leaves, moss, silt and wind-blown debris build up in gutters and around outlets. When water can't flow, it spills over the edge, runs down walls and can cause damp patches. Regular clearing keeps the rainwater system working, especially near trees or under mossy roofs.
We clear the agreed sections and check accessible outlets for blockages. Gutter cleaning works well straight after roof moss removal, so nothing dislodged is left in the channels.
Re-sanding and sealing
A deep clean of block paving lifts loose jointing sand. Once the paving is dry, fresh kiln-dried sand is brushed back into the joints to support the blocks and finish the look. On suitable surfaces a compatible sealer can reduce water absorption and make routine cleaning easier. It won't fix unstable, damaged or poorly drained paving, so we check the condition first.
Patio regrouting
Missing or crumbling joints spoil an otherwise good patio. After cleaning, suitable joints can be renewed. The right approach depends on the stone, joint depth and drainage, so we assess each patio individually.
What we can include
- Gutter clearing and removal of loose debris
- Fascia and soffit cleaning
- Re-sanding block paving after cleaning
- Surface sealing where suitable
- Patio regrouting
- Cleaning walls, steps and paths
Gutters & sealing FAQ
How do I know if my gutters need cleaning?
Plants growing out of them, water spilling over the edge, staining below joints and debris at the downpipe outlets are the usual signs.
Does every cleaned driveway need sealing?
No. Sealing is optional and doesn't suit every surface. We look at the paving type, its condition and any previous coatings before recommending it.
Why must paving be dry before sealing?
Most sealers need a clean, dry surface and suitable weather to bond and cure properly. Sealing too soon can trap moisture and spoil the finish.
Do you carry out gutter or roof repairs?
We clean and maintain. If we spot an obvious defect while we're working, we'll show you so you can arrange a repair.
