Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Folkington
Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. The frame joint is cut out and resealed with an exterior sealant. We work on garage door frames, gutter joints and roofline trims, and people most often call us about open joints in fascias and soffits and damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Folkington is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Folkington
Debris in the gutter keeps water sitting at the joints. Water that can’t drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
For landlords with property near Polegate station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

What gutter sealing looks like in Folkington
With historic houses such as Alfriston Clergy House (about 2.5 miles west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Folkington as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Homes close to The Parish Church of Saint Peter include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Schools such as Willingdon Community School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

What does gutter sealing cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

- uPVC fascias
- Soffit joints
- Roofline trims
- Garage door frames
- Gutter end caps

What happens if it’s left?
New gutters cost far more than a few resealed joints. Where the gutter is in good order and only a joint leaks a reseal is all it needs. If it’s broken or sagging, a gutter installer needs to look. In a small place like Folkington, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.
