I have several leaks in my guttering that I need to repair. The leaks are mainly where there are joins in the gutters, especially on the 90 degree bends around the corners of the house.
I have had a few goes with silicon, but without much success.
So;
Is a silicon (such as Selleys Silicone Roof & Gutter) really the go and I am simply not doing it properly? i.e I am a nuffy.
OR
Is there a better way? I have heard of bitumen based tapes that might be better, Searched this forum and didn't find specific names.
Also, has anybody tried the fibreglass stuff I have heard that you can get and if so is is a better solution?
