Gutter sealing near High Cross

About our gutter sealing in High Cross

Failed sealant round a garage door frame lets rain blow in. The frame joint is cut out and resealed with an exterior sealant. We are often asked to deal with cracked sealant along roofline trims and wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint, across garage door frames, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias.

Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in High Cross is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Outside joints around High Cross

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Albourne CofE Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. Letting a property close to Hassocks station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

High Cross is about 4 miles west of Burgess Hill, in West Sussex. Jobs in High Cross get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. High Cross is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex where we work. Brighton is on our list too, around 9 miles away.

Different surfaces, different methods

Gutter joints

A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.

Roofline trims

Sealing roofline trims is joint work only. A roofer deals with the roof itself.

Can I do it myself?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Why act early in High Cross

Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts, but it soon lets go. Proper preparation is the difference. Older cottages and farmhouses around High Cross can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Why us?

  • We are fully insured
  • Colour picked to suit the job
  • Over 20 years’ experience
  • A choice of colours where the product allows

Read our cost guide and what customers say.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
  • Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
  • Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters

Look at fascia and trim joints when you are checking the gutters. Splits are easier to seal early.

Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.

How the visit works

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. In a small place like High Cross, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
  2. We clean out each joint.
  3. We make sure everything is dry.
  4. The sealant is applied and finished.
  5. The joints are checked once sealed.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

High Cross questions

I let a flat near Hassocks station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Do you cover smaller places like High Cross?

Yes, High Cross is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

What sealant do you use?

It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

How long does the job take?

That depends on how much there is to do, but most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. We’ll tell you when we quote.

How much does gutter sealing cost in High Cross?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.

Is gutter cleaning part of the job?

Only around the joints we seal, so the sealant can bond. Cleaning the whole run is a separate job.

How long should I leave it?

Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Do you need gutter sealing in High Cross?

Water spilling over a blocked gutter is often mistaken for a leak. If the downpipe is blocked, water has nowhere to go, which is why we look before we seal.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Dripping gutter ends
  • Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
  • Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
  • Garage door frames letting rain in

Homes close to The Parish Church of St Bartholomew include some older properties, and an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Choosing a sealant specialist

What affects the quote in High Cross

We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The amount of work

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Roughly how big the job is
