Do you need gutter sealing in Orlestone?
Sagging sections pull joints apart. Sealing won’t hold if the gutter keeps dropping so the brackets need attention first.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Rain getting in around a garage door
For landlords with property near Ham Street station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Gutter sealing in Orlestone
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Often a reseal is enough if the gutter isn’t damaged. We work on roofline trims, garage door frames and gutter end caps, and common reasons people get in touch are stop ends leaking at the end of a run and internal damp traced to a gutter joint.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Orlestone is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Orlestone and across Kent.

Can I do it myself?
If you’re 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 fails, we can still redo it.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
How we quote for gutter sealing
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Leave it or put it right?
Sealant won’t clear a blocked downpipe. We look at what’s really happening and point you to the right trade if needed. In a small place like Orlestone, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Common questions in Orlestone
Is Orlestone within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ham Street station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where. If we need more, we will ask.
Do you work on high-level gutters?
Single-storey and low-level gutters are straightforward. For higher work, tell us about access and we will confirm what’s needed.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Orlestone, along with the rest of our area.
Is the work guaranteed?
You get our 12-month guarantee to all our work.
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. Splits are easier to seal early.
Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall, which can lead to staining and damp.
Surface by surface
uPVC fascias
Open fascia joints look untidy and can let water in. A neat bead closes them up.
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. We use a sealant made for outdoor joints.
Walls and rooflines in Orlestone
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Schools such as Hamstreet Primary Academy are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. In the older streets around Church of St Mary the Virgin, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.
