When to call us in Albourne
Gutter joints depend on seals that wear out. Sun and cold make the gutter expand and contract and that movement opens up tired joints.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Failed sealant on a garage door frame
Letting a property close to Hassocks station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

- The length of the guarantee
- Is the old sealant removed completely?

How we handle gutter sealing in Albourne
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Sealing it is quick if the gutter is otherwise in good order. We work on gutter joints, roofline trims and gutter end caps, and people most often call us about fascia boards with gaps between them and cracked sealant along roofline trims.
Around Albourne, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Albourne and across West Sussex.

Surface by surface
Gutter end caps
Drips from a stop end run down the brickwork. It’s a quick reseal.
Soffit joints
Soffit joints are sealed in a colour to suit, where one is available.
Albourne buildings and the weather
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you look after a building such as Albourne CofE Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. Homes close to The Parish Church of St Bartholomew include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

Leave it or put it right?
If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing won’t help. We check the cause first and point you to the right trade if needed. Around Albourne, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What affects the cost of gutter sealing
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much there is to do
- Which sealant suits the joint
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- A few photos by email, if you can
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved.
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Guttering that needs replacing
- Blocked downpipes
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal

- Gutter joints

How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Somewhere like Albourne needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
- The joints are dried.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
