Gutter sealing in Westerton, done properly
Gutter and fascia replacement isn’t our trade, and nor is roofing. What sealant does is close joints and it can’t mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. Typical jobs include damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter and old sealant on roofline trims that has split, on gutter joints, garage door frames and soffit joints.
Around Westerton, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.

Gutter sealing in Westerton: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Goodwood House (about 0.8 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Westerton as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.
For landlords with property near Chichester station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Schools such as The March CofE Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Common questions in Westerton
Do you cover smaller places like Westerton?
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.
Is Westerton in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Westerton is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
How long will you be here?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Is gutter cleaning part of the job?
Only around the joints we seal because the joint must be clean. A full gutter clean is a separate job.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee applies on every job.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Somewhere like Westerton needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- The joint is dried before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Preparing for the visit

Advice
Signs you need gutter sealing in Westerton
Overflowing gutters can look like leaking joints. A blocked downpipe makes water back up so we check the cause first.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Peter, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Who turns up on the day
Different surfaces, different methods
Gutter joints
When a joint drips, the gutter is often still sound. Sealing the joint often stops it.
Gutter end caps
End caps take the pressure of water running along the gutter. A failed seal makes them leak.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Keep ladders off the guttering
If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. If it drops, the joints will open.
The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we’ll tell you.
