How To Repair A Leaking Gutter Union Bracket 

Just replace the union hardest part is done to remove union replace with new union, just friendly advice 🤙

I think it's a mistake to use sealant. The gutter needs to expand & contract in the fitting, but sealant will lock it in place. Just put a new seal in IIWY.

"Here's a seal ! " Reminds me of Blue Peter and Play School "Here's one we made earlier !" 😅 Amazing how you just happen to have a seal 😊

Before you cut the old gutter to length, make sure it fits into any other union or running outlet. Might just need re positioning

Really not worth messing around, union brackets are less than £3! Can tell by the easy way the clip snapped on, that there's not much meat on that gasket for it to clamp tight.

Put a screw in the union otherwise it will leak under continuous strain from rain water. And the union should have rubber gaskets in not just some silicone. Far easier to replace old union for a new one at a cost of around £3

Just by a new one man Job done 5 mins

Surely it would be easier to put a brand new joining bracket on the spend time cleaning it and siliconing one side

The sealant that you used was probably more expensive than a new union

another great vid thanks

Dear sir could you give me advice on how to use dulux easycare with a brush I found that the paint is dragging when you blend in and pulling the previous brush strokes off making patches. I have watered it down slightly but it is still doing it , I hope the next coat rectifies this . I am painting fresco paper Thank you.

Another job well done 👍

Excellent so satisfying to watch 👍

A new seal does not always work, ive found even a new fitting can leak,annoying when youve put new joints on.

Do you work in London? My gutter wasn't fixed properly so when it rains the water falls in the windowsill.

The labour involved in messing about cleaning the old bracket etc really isn't worth it. Better to just buy a new coupler and change it. I've never seen this sort of repair to last long term no matter what sealant etc used. If I had to do a quick fix then In my opinion denso tape is hard to beat and will cope with expansion and contraction.

👍👍👍

Legend 👌👍🏻

There note made for sealant no no just saying

Why when a new one is £2.50 drrrrrrrr

and the union should be screwed to facia to stop it moving.

just get a new union
