Gutter sealing in Hunston

Common problems we fix in Hunston

Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Water that can’t drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.

People usually contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
  • Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
  • Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
  • Garage door frames letting rain in

If you live in an older home near St Leodegar's Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Gutter sealing in Hunston, done properly

Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. The frame joint is cut out and resealed using a sealant made for outdoor use. If you’re dealing with damp patches inside below a leaking gutter and wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint, we can help.

External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Hunston is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.

Our work is backed for twelve months, in Hunston and everywhere else we cover.

Hunston buildings and the weather

Hunston is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Historic houses like Goodwood House (about 4.5 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Hunston has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.

If you look after a building such as North Mundham Primary School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you let a flat or house near Chichester station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Hunston is about 2 miles south of Chichester, in West Sussex. From the centre of Hunston to the outskirts, gutter sealing is available for homes and businesses alike. Hunston is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex we cover for gutter sealing. There’s also a page for Portsmouth, about 13 miles away.

How we quote for gutter sealing

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • How easy the joints are to reach

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

What we need to know

You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • The type of property

We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Look along the fascias for open joints
  • Keep the gutters clear of debris
  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
  • Check that water runs out of the downpipes

While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. 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.

DIY versus a professional finish

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Common questions in Hunston

Does the coastal weather in Hunston affect outside sealant?

Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.

Do you work for landlords with property near Chichester station?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

How long should I leave it?

Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.

Will sealing fix a sagging gutter?

It won’t last. The movement opens the joint again, so the fall and brackets need sorting first.

Can you fit new guttering?

Replacement is not our trade. We will tell you if the gutter needs replacing.

Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?

In many cases, yes. Cleaning, drying and resealing the joint normally works. A split or warped section needs replacing.

Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?

We do. Our work is the joints, and if a board is damaged, we will tell you.

What happens if it’s left?

A dripping stop end can soak the wall right through the wet months. It’s a small job to put right compared with treating damp later. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hunston, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before we start.

The process

There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access for a typical job. Somewhere as small as Hunston, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
  2. The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We check the run and clear debris near the joints.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
