Walls and rooflines in Cheriton
Cheriton 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. Historic houses like Acrise Place (about 3.4 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Cheriton has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Schools such as All Soul's Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Folkestone West station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. If you live in an older home near Church of All Souls, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Advice
What sealant work cannot fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Fascias that need replacing
- Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- uPVC fascias
- Roofline trims
- Garage door frames
- Soffit joints
- Gutter end caps
- Gutter joints
Leave it or put it right?
A new garage door isn’t needed for a leaking frame. Sealing the frame normally stops it. In a smaller place like Cheriton, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
Keep downpipes clear so the gutter can drain. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. We will let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Surface by surface
Soffit joints
Soffits sit under the eaves, where joints can open up. We seal them to close the gaps.
Roofline trims
Sealing roofline trims is joint work only. A roofer deals with the roof itself.
