Gutter, fascia & soffit sealing in Lower Higham, Medway
Problem with your gutter and fascia joints in Lower Higham? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- End caps that drip every time it rains
Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. A small split is quicker to put right.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.
About our gutter sealing in Lower Higham
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That is why we take out the old sealant and dirt first, then dry the joint before sealing. Common call-outs are for end caps that drip every time it rains and damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter, on gutter joints, uPVC fascias and gutter end caps.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Lower Higham is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What happens if it’s left?
New gutters cost far more than a few resealed joints. Where the gutter is in good order and only a joint leaks a reseal is all it needs. If it has failed, we’ll tell you. Around Lower Higham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Common questions in Lower Higham
Is gutter sealing in a coastal place like Lower Higham any different?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Higham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?
Usually, if the gutter is sound. The joint is cleaned and dried first so the seal holds.
Will sealing fix a sagging gutter?
Not for long. The movement opens the joint again so the gutter has to be refixed first.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.
Landlord and commercial work in Lower Higham
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

Outside joints around Lower Higham
Lower Higham is within about 3 miles of 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.

In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
