Gutter Sealing in Alverstone
Problem with your gutter and fascia joints in Alverstone? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a 12-month guarantee.
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise and avoid disturbing it.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.
About our gutter sealing in Alverstone
We don’t replace gutters, fascias or roofs. Sealant fixes joints and it cannot mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. If you’re dealing with fascia boards with gaps between them and failed sealant on a garage door frame, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older homes in small places like Alverstone may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water generally gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Common problems we fix in Alverstone
End caps get knocked or pushed by water. If the seal fails, water escapes at the end and runs down the wall.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
Rented homes near Sandown station change hands often, and leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Walls and rooflines in Alverstone
Alverstone is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. With historic houses such as Haseley Manor (about 1.8 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Alverstone as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Homes close to All Saints' Church include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. Managing a site like Newchurch Primary School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

The process
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first.

For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- We clean out each joint.
- The joints are dried.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- We check our work before we leave.

Questions from Alverstone
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Alverstone?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
Do you cover smaller places like Alverstone?
Yes, Alverstone is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Where are you based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?
Yes, as long as the gutter itself is in good order. We clean and dry the joint before sealing so the sealant bonds.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Can tenants book the work?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Why it’s worth doing now in Alverstone
If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing won’t help. We look at what’s really happening and tell you if something else is needed. In a small place like Alverstone, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why us?
- We never seal over old sealant
- Tidy, careful work
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
