About our gutter sealing in Founthill
Failed sealant round a garage door frame lets rain blow in. The frame joint is cut out and resealed using a sealant made for outdoor use. We’re often asked to deal with streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint and trim joints where the sealant has failed, on garage door frames, soffit joints and roofline trims.
Around Founthill, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. If it drops, the joints will open.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp.

Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Blocked downpipes
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
- Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Gutter end caps
- Soffit joints
- Garage door frames
- Gutter joints
- Roofline trims
- uPVC fascias
Surface by surface
Roofline trims
Roofline trims rely on sealant at their joints. When it splits, water can get behind.
Soffit joints
We choose a sealant colour that suits the soffit.
Leave it or put it right?
A dripping gutter joint keeps wetting the same patch of wall. Left, it can stain walls and lead to damp, so it’s worth sealing early. Around Founthill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours from start to finish. Somewhere as small as Founthill, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- The joint is dried before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Walls and rooflines in Founthill
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Mary, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. If you let a flat or house near Uckfield station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Newick Church of England Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
