What Causes a Dripping Joint

Plastic gutters are joined with unions, corners and stop ends that each hold a rubber seal. Over time the rubber stiffens, and cold weather can make the gutter contract away from the seal. Silt trapped in the joint can also hold it open. Older cast iron gutters leak when the bedding sealant between sections fails.

At a leaking union, the fitter may clean the mating surfaces and fit a new rubber gasket. A drip can also come from movement in the adjoining run, so the joint should be water-tested afterwards.

The Repair Process

  1. A water test confirms which joint is dripping.
  2. The joint is cleared of silt and opened up.
  3. The joint is re-seated or given a new seal or fitting.
  4. The gutter is tested again to confirm it stays dry.

How Much to Fix a Leaking Gutter Joint in Folkestone?

Most gutter joint and seal repairs in Folkestone cost between £60 and £220. One plastic joint costs the least, while several joints or cast iron work is at the top.

Factors That Change the Cost

  • Number of leaking joints
  • uPVC, aluminium or cast iron

  • Re-seating versus new parts
