Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Lewes
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Resealing the joint is often all it needs, as long as the gutter is sound. Typical jobs include leaking gutter joints and stop ends and damp patches inside below a leaking gutter, on gutter end caps, gutter joints and soffit joints.
Lewes mixes older houses and their gutters with newer estates of brick, render and uPVC trims. Gutter joints, fascia trims and the movement joints in newer brickwork all need sealant that can flex.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
- Sort out a dripping joint early
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. A small split is quicker to put right.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. We’ll let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.
The process
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. In Lewes, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and let us know if the work is upstairs, in a flat or up high outside.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- We clean out each joint.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear the area around the work

Walls and rooflines in Lewes
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. Historic houses like Anne of Cleves House (about 0.6 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Lewes 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 live in an older home near Church of St John sub Castro, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. If you let a flat or house near Lewes station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Do you need gutter sealing in Lewes?
Stop ends take pressure from water running along the gutter. Once the seal behind them fails, they drip.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Lewes Old Grammar School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Lewes
Can you do gutter sealing in Lewes?
Yes, Lewes is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is there a guarantee on gutter sealing in Lewes?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will tell you how long to leave the joint.
Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?
Sealing a sagging joint will not last. A gutter installer needs to refix it, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Will you clear out my gutters?
We clear debris around the joints we are sealing. Full gutter cleaning is a separate job.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
How the job changes by surface
Soffit joints
We choose a sealant colour that suits the soffit, where one is available.
Gutter end caps
End caps take the pressure of water running along the gutter. A failed seal makes them leak.
