Hi,
As the title suggests I have a cast iron gutter that is leaking at the joints. There is scaffolding up for other work. I know some will straight away say replace, but replacing in plastic is not an option (conservation area) and to buy a like for like replacement that the planners would accept is beyond my budget!
I know that the traditional repair is to remove the gutter and putty up but given the age of the thing I would rather not risk removing it if possible and I wondered if anyone has experience of brush on repair materials in this context.
I saw this Roofix 20/10 stuff on toolstation https://www.toolstation.com/shop/p12672?searchstr=roofi and it gets great reviews there and on Amazon, and supposedly stays flexible.
Any thoughts, alternatives, gladly received.
Cheers,
