Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
About our gutter sealing in Rustington
Our work covers gutter joints and end caps as well as fascias and soffits, along with roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work, not replacing the gutter. Common call-outs are for damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter and earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off, on roofline trims, uPVC fascias and gutter end caps.
Around Rustington, garages, outbuildings and extensions all add to the joints on the outside of a home. Gutter ends, garage door frames and the joints where an extension meets the house are typical spots for leaks.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. For a job in Rustington, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter isn’t cracked or sagging.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
What affects the cost of gutter sealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether the work is at height
- The size of the job
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Roughly how big the job is
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that is easy.
Your questions about gutter sealing in Rustington
Does the coastal weather in Rustington affect outside sealant?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Do you cover smaller places like Rustington?
Yes. Rustington is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Walls and rooflines in Rustington
Rustington 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. With historic houses such as Ecclesden Manor (about 2 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Rustington as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Managing a site like Rustington Community Primary School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. For landlords with property near Angmering station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Boards that have decayed or split
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
- Guttering that needs replacing
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Garage door frames
- Gutter joints
- Gutter end caps
- Soffit joints
- uPVC fascias
- Roofline trims
Different surfaces, different methods
Roofline trims
Roofline trims rely on sealant at their joints. When it splits, water can get behind.
Gutter end caps
Stop ends hold back water at the end of a run. When their seal fails, they drip.
Why act early in Rustington
Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts but it tends to peel off. Proper preparation is the difference. In an older home around Rustington, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
