Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Basted
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 while the gutter is still sound. If you are dealing with water running down the wall below the gutter and open joints in fascias and soffits, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Basted, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.

The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. For a village or hamlet like Basted, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

When to call us in Basted
When a gutter sags, its joints open. Resealing a sagging joint will not last, so the gutter needs refixing first.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Water dripping where gutter sections meet
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
If you let a flat or house near Borough Green & Wrotham station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Basted
Do you cover smaller places like Basted?
Yes, Basted is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Borough Green & Wrotham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
What does gutter sealing cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Will you clear out my gutters?
The joints we seal are cleaned out and any debris nearby is cleared. A full gutter clean is a separate service.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
What gutter sealing looks like in Basted
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. With historic houses such as Old Soar Manor (about 1.4 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Basted 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.
Homes close to The Church of the Good Shepherd include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Borough Green Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

What affects the quote in Basted
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether the work is at height
- How much there is to do
- Mould in or behind the old joints
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The type of property
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it has been sealed before
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Keep downpipes clear
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
Keep downpipes clear so the gutter can drain. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards.
