Walls and rooflines in Dargate
Dargate is within about 3 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hernhill Church of England Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. In the older streets around Church of St Michael, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

About our gutter sealing in Dargate
We seal leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascia and soffit joints, along with roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work rather than new guttering. We work on soffit joints, roofline trims and gutter end caps, and people most often call us about drips from gutter joints and end caps and wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Dargate is planned for dry weather. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Dargate, the journey is planned in advance: 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 agree which joints need sealing.
- Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
- The joints are dried.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- We check our work before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Dargate questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Selling station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you cover smaller places like Dargate?
Yes, Dargate is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
Most of the time. If the gutter is sagging or cracked, sealing will not last, and we’ll tell you.
Do you install new fascias or gutters?
No. We seal leaking joints and trims. Replacement needs a gutter installer or roofer.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
Low-level work is easiest. We’ll confirm the access for higher gutters before we book.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Common problems we fix in Dargate
Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Water that cannot drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
For landlords with property near Selling station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Leave it or put it right?
Replacing fascias because of open joints is generally unnecessary. Sealing the joints tidies them up as long as the boards are in good condition. Older cottages and farmhouses around Dargate can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before we start.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
Check the joints after heavy rain now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp inside.
