Trusted gutter sealing in Southwick

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. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Southwick

A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Sealing it is quick while the gutter is still sound. If you have open joints in fascias and soffits and old gutter sealant that has let go, we can help, on gutter end caps, garage door frames and uPVC fascias alike.

Homes around Southwick range from older cottages to newer houses, with walls and rooflines of every type. Older homes need their gutter and trim joints kept tight, newer ones their movement joints.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Parking around Southwick is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
  2. The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
  3. The joint is dried before sealing.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. We check the run and clear debris near the joints.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Mention any tricky access

Outside joints around Southwick

Southwick is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

Managing a site like Eastbrook Primary Academy? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. In the older streets around St Michael and All Angels Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. Letting a property close to Southwick station? Then leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Southwick is about 2 miles east of Shoreham-by-Sea, in West Sussex.

Common questions in Southwick

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Southwick station?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.

Does the coastal weather in Southwick affect outside sealant?

Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.

What do you put in the joint?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we are using.

Will there be a smell?

Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Do I need to be at home?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
  • Get leaks sealed before the wet months
  • Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
  • Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps

Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked so the gutter can drain. Blockages push water back along the gutter.

Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry and the wall below.
