- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
- A gutter length that has split

How we handle gutter sealing in Herne Common
We do not replace gutters, fascias or roofs. Sealant fixes joints; it won’t fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. If you have quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last and fascia boards with gaps between them, we can help, on soffit joints, garage door frames and uPVC fascias alike.
Older homes in small places like Herne Common may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Outside joints around Herne Common
Herne Common is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. 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.
In the older streets around Church of St Martin, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. Managing a site like Herne Church of England Infant School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Replacing fascias because of open joints is generally unnecessary. A neat seal closes the gaps if the boards are sound. Older cottages and farmhouses around Herne Common can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

How we quote for gutter sealing
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many areas need sealing
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any access issues, like height or stairs

DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends

Herne Common questions
Is gutter sealing in a coastal place like Herne Common any different?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
Do you work for landlords with property near Herne Bay station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
Do you come to Herne Common?
Yes. We work in Herne Common, as part of our work across South East England, London and Scotland. To book, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Is sealing fascia joints something you do?
Yes. Our work is the joints and we’ll let you know if a board has failed.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
In most cases, yes. A sagging or cracked gutter needs more than sealant and we will say so.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
