Outside joints around Chailey
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Homes close to The Parish Church of St Peter include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Schools such as Chailey St Peter's Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

How we handle gutter sealing in Chailey
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first, then dry the joint before sealing. We work on soffit joints, garage door frames and uPVC fascias, and people most often call us about drips from gutter joints and end caps and dripping gutter ends.
Somewhere as small as Chailey, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Somewhere like Chailey needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter isn’t cracked or sagging.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Can I add another job to the visit?

How long before the joint can be used?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?
It won’t last. The joint will pull apart, so the fall and brackets need sorting first.
Common problems we fix in Chailey
End caps get knocked or pushed by water. Once the seal behind them fails, they drip.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
Rented homes near Plumpton station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Leave it or put it right?
Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts but it tends to peel off. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. Around Chailey, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
