FAQs for Eastbourne
Do you work for landlords with property near Hampden Park station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Eastbourne?
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 I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Bigger jobs take longer.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
What does gutter sealing cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
About our gutter sealing in Eastbourne
Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame with an exterior sealant. Typical jobs include fascia boards with gaps between them and damp patches inside below a leaking gutter, across uPVC fascias, roofline trims and soffit joints.
Flats, offices and shops in Eastbourne have long runs of movement joints, cladding joints and roofline trims. When those fail, water gets behind the face of the building, often unseen until it shows inside.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
Look at fascia and trim joints when you are checking the gutters. A small split is quicker to put right.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry and the wall below.

What happens if it’s left?
A bead squeezed onto a wet joint might hold for a while, but it soon lets go. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. In a large rental market like Eastbourne, tired sealant leads to tenant complaints about mould, damp and leaks. It’s simpler to sort between tenants than in the middle of a let.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Landlord and commercial work in Eastbourne
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Walls and rooflines in Eastbourne
Eastbourne is within about 1 mile of 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. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you look after a building such as Stafford Junior School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. For an older house near a landmark such as St Andrew, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Rented homes near Hampden Park station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Gutter joints
A dripping joint does not always mean a failed gutter. Sealing the joint often stops it.
