Leave it or put it right?
Replacing guttering is a much bigger job than sealing joints. If the gutter is sound and the drip is a joint a reseal is all it needs. If it’s broken or sagging, a gutter installer needs to look. Older cottages and farmhouses around Filching can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
Why book with us
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

About our gutter sealing in Filching
Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. The frame joint is cut out and resealed with an exterior sealant. If you have old sealant on roofline trims that has split and garage door frames letting rain in, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Filching, 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Gutter sealing in Filching: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Historic houses like Alfriston Clergy House (about 2.9 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Filching 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.
In the older streets around The Parish Church of Saint Peter, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. If you let a flat or house near Polegate station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Managing a site like Willingdon Primary School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, depending on how much there is to do. In a small place like Filching, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- The joint is dried, because sealant won’t bond to a wet surface.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any water getting in

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. Splits are easier to seal early.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards.
