For several years people have had to struggle with the costly annoyance of a Leaking Gutter. Why does the Gutter Leak in the first place? There are two main types of gutter.

 

1. P.V.C
2. Cast Iron

 

Both are assembled in sections with a rubber seal ring to prevent leaking. However, over time and element exposure the rubber seal distorts and degrades, hence the frequent asked questions “How do I fix a Leaking Gutter”? The traditional method is try to seal the joint with a conventional silicon sealant. This is not a remedy to fix a Leaking Gutter, WHY? Firstly the surface has to be dry because silicone will not adhere to a wet surface. Secondly if the surface is dry and the silicon has been applied the repair is short lived as the solvent in the silicone will evaporate causing shrinkage resulting in a Leaking Gutter. Thirdly the silicone will be attached by U.V. and the elements loosing its elasticity resulting in a Leaking Gutter.
