About our gutter sealing in Petteridge
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 while the gutter is still sound. If you’re dealing with open joints in fascias and soffits and cracked sealant along roofline trims, we can help, on uPVC fascias, roofline trims and garage door frames alike.
Older homes in small places like Petteridge may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Petteridge buildings and the weather
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. With historic houses such as Scotney Castle (about 3.8 miles south) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Petteridge as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
If you look after a building such as Brenchley and Matfield Church of England Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. If you let a flat or house near Paddock Wood station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Advice
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Keep downpipes clear
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise before poking or cleaning near it.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. Resealing the frame is a quick job.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Different surfaces, different methods
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. We use a sealant made for outdoor joints.
Gutter end caps
Stop ends hold back water at the end of a run. When their seal fails, they drip.
Common problems we fix in Petteridge
Debris in the gutter keeps water sitting at the joints. Water that can’t drain works its way through a weak joint and leaks out.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Water dripping where gutter sections meet
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
For an older house near a landmark such as Ebenezer Church (Matfield), an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.
