Gutter sealing in Sompting
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. We work on soffit joints, garage door frames and gutter end caps, and the jobs we see most are water running down the wall below the gutter and trim joints where the sealant has failed.
In a smaller place like Sompting, some homes face open ground, so exposed walls and rooflines take more wind-driven rain. Joints on those sides are generally the first to go.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

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 before the damage spreads. In an older home around Sompting, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What we’re called out for in Sompting
Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Temperature changes make gutters move and that movement opens up tired joints.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
Letting a property close to Lancing station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
Questions to ask before booking
- What product goes in the joint
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Are they insured?
Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Common questions in Sompting
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Sompting?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
Do you work for landlords with property near Lancing station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?
Yes. Open joints along uPVC fascias and soffits can be sealed in a matching colour.
Is gutter cleaning part of the job?
We clear debris near the joints because the joint must be clean. A full gutter clean is a separate job.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will tell you how long to leave the joint.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Boards that have decayed or split
- Water backing up from a blocked pipe
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours from start to finish. For a job in Sompting, 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 trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear the area around the work
How to get a quote

Walls and rooflines in Sompting
Sompting 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, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Homes close to St Peter the Apostle include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. If you look after a building such as Sompting Village Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
Look at fascia and trim joints when you are 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 will let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.
