How we handle gutter sealing in Icklesham
A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, but each shower sends water to the same place. Resealing it is a small job if the gutter is otherwise in good order. If you’re dealing with damp patches inside below a leaking gutter and cracked sealant along roofline trims, we can put it right.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Icklesham is booked around the forecast. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

When to call us in Icklesham
Overflowing gutters can look like leaking joints. If the downpipe is blocked, water has nowhere to go, which is why we look before we seal.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- End caps that drip every time it rains
Schools such as Icklesham Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Icklesham buildings and the weather
Icklesham is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Letting a property close to Winchelsea station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Nicholas, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. In a small place like Icklesham, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
Check the joints after heavy rain now and then. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall, which can lead to staining and damp.
FAQs for Icklesham
Is Icklesham within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is gutter sealing in a coastal place like Icklesham any different?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Do you replace gutters or fascias?
No, we reseal joints and trims. Replacement needs a gutter installer or roofer.
Do you clean gutters?
Only around the joints we seal because the joint must be clean. A full gutter clean is a separate job.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
Low-level work is easiest. We’ll confirm the access for higher gutters before we book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if it’s left?
If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing will not help. We look at what’s really happening and tell you if something else is needed. Older cottages and farmhouses around Icklesham can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
