What we’re called out for in Barcombe
Debris in the gutter keeps water sitting at the joints. Water that can’t drain works its way through a weak joint and leaks out.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Barcombe Church of England Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Gutter sealing in Barcombe, done properly
Gaps along uPVC fascias and soffits look untidy and can let in water and draughts. We seal them in a colour to suit where one is available. We work on gutter joints, gutter end caps and garage door frames, and common reasons people get in touch are dripping gutter ends and old sealant on roofline trims that has split.
In a village or hamlet like Barcombe, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Joints on those walls need a sealant that moves with the building and stays in place.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Leave it or put it right?
A bead squeezed onto a wet joint might hold for a while but it tends to peel off. Proper preparation is the difference. Older cottages and farmhouses around Barcombe can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Different surfaces, different methods
Gutter joints
Joints between gutter lengths are the most common leak point. We clean, dry and reseal them.
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. We use a sealant made for outdoor 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. Most jobs then take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. In a small place like Barcombe, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

Gutter sealing in Barcombe: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Historic houses like Glyndebourne (about 3.2 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Barcombe has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
Letting a property close to Cooksbridge station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Mary, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
