What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours.

We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.

What gutter sealing looks like in Hunters Forstal
Hunters Forstal is within about 2 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. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Rented homes near Herne Bay station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. In the older streets around Church of St Bartholomew, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Watch for drips in a downpour
Keep downpipes clear, so water can get away. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
If an end cap is dripping, deal with it before winter. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp.
When something else is needed
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water backing up from a blocked pipe
- Brackets that have snapped or loosened
- Guttering that needs replacing

Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Hunters Forstal?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Can you reach high gutters?
It depends on the access. Tell us the height and what’s around the gutter and we will confirm what’s needed.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels in Hunters Forstal.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
Yes, as long as the gutter itself is in good order. We clean and dry the joint before sealing so the sealant bonds.
