Gutter joints
A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. We use a sealant made for outdoor joints.
About our gutter sealing in Lower Rainham
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but each shower sends water to the same place. Resealing it is a small job while the gutter is still sound. Typical jobs include rain getting in around a garage door and trim joints where the sealant has failed, on garage door frames, gutter end caps and soffit joints.
Somewhere as small as Lower Rainham, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Lower Rainham and everywhere else we cover.

Outside joints around Lower Rainham
Lower Rainham is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. 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 an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Margaret, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. If you let a flat or house near Rainham (Kent) station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
FAQs for Lower Rainham
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Rainham (Kent) station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Lower Rainham?
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 fit new guttering?
That’s not something we do. Our work is sealing joints and replacement is a job for an installer.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can you seal fascia and soffit joints?
Yes. We seal open joints along fascias and soffits in a colour to suit.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Do you guarantee gutter sealing?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.
