Old Town buildings and the weather
Old Town is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In the older streets around Church of St Mary, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. Letting a property close to Eastbourne station? Then leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

About our gutter sealing in Old Town
We work across Old Town on leaking gutter joints and roofline trims. Low-level work is straightforward and if it’s higher up, let us know and we’ll confirm what access is needed. Typical jobs include internal damp traced to a gutter joint and fascia boards with gaps between them, on garage door frames, uPVC fascias and soffit joints.
Houses in smaller places like Old Town can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, so exposed walls and rooflines take more wind-driven rain. That’s where gutter joints and wall joints tend to fail first.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Old Town and everywhere else we cover.

Common questions in Old Town
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Old Town?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.
Is Old Town within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
How do I get a quote for gutter sealing in Old Town?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
Do you install new fascias or gutters?
We do not replace gutters or fascias. If a gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you so you can call the right trade.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Sagging gutters or broken brackets
- Rotten or damaged fascia boards
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Gutter joints
- Garage door frames
- Roofline trims
- Gutter end caps
- Soffit joints
- uPVC fascias
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. If it drops, the joints will open.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry.

What else we do in Old Town
Leave it or put it right?
Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts but it tends to peel off. Proper preparation is the difference. Around Old Town, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
Why Old Town customers choose us
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Fully insured
- 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
