Gutter sealing in Hythe
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Sealing it is quick if the gutter is otherwise in good order. We work on uPVC fascias, gutter joints and soffit joints, and the jobs we see most are rain getting in around a garage door and internal damp traced to a gutter joint.
Extensions are a common sight on houses around Hythe, and the line where an extension meets the original house is a common leak point. Getting the joint depth right matters as much as the sealant itself.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Hythe
Sealant laid on a wet or dirty joint fails early. Some quick repairs peel off within a season or two for this reason.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
Managing a site like Hythe Bay CofE Primary School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee
- How the colour is chosen
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Leave it or put it right?
Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts, but it soon lets go. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. Draughts from a gap round a frame, damp under a sill or water behind a bath panel all start small, and early is when they’re cheapest and quickest to sort.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why book with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- ARBOMaster approved applicator

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Parking in a town like Hythe is generally straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- We clean out each joint.
- The joints are dried.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Preparing for the visit

Outside joints around Hythe
Hythe is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. 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, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Michael and All Angels, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. If you let a flat or house near Sandling station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

uPVC fascias
Gaps in fascias spoil the roofline. A neat bead closes them up.
Gutter joints
Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. We clean, dry and reseal them.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?

How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
How long will you be here?

We clear what’s around the joints we work on. Full gutter cleaning is a separate job.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
