What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work usually takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. In a small place like Appledore, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- We clean out each joint.
- The joints are dried.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- We check our work before we leave.
Before we arrive

Common questions in Appledore
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Appledore (Kent) station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover Appledore for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Appledore is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
No. If the gutter sags, the joints keep opening so it needs refixing before sealing.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Can you fit new guttering?
No, we reseal joints, end caps and trims. Replacement needs a gutter installer or roofer.
Can you seal fascia and soffit joints?
Yes. Open joints along uPVC fascias and soffits can be sealed in a colour to suit.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
What affects the quote in Appledore
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Access and height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Need a quote? Please call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details. You will know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.
Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Do you need gutter sealing in Appledore?
Sealant on fascias and trims weathers like any outdoor joint. It hardens, shrinks and splits over time.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.
What your quote should include
- What the cure time is
- How long the guarantee is
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Make sure downpipes are not blocked
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Watch for drips in a downpour
Clear the gutters once or twice a year so water does not sit on the joints. Standing water strains every seal.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. A reseal sorts it.
Appledore buildings and the weather
Historic houses like Smallhythe Place (about 3.9 miles west) are a reminder that the area around Appledore has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you let a flat or house near Appledore (Kent) station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.
