About gutter sealing in Clackmannanshire
A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, but each shower sends water to the same place. Resealing it is a small job while the gutter is still sound. We work on gutter joints, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias, and people most often call us about drips from gutter joints and end caps and old gutter sealant that has let go.
Good joint work is mostly 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.
- We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter is not broken or sagging.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.

Gutter sealing across Clackmannanshire: local notes
From Alloa, Tullibody and Tillicoultry to its smaller places, buildings across Clackmannanshire have walls, gutters and rooflines of every age. All of them move, so they need a flexible sealant at the right depth.
The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, but outside joints take plenty of weather everywhere. Sealants for jobs in Clackmannanshire are chosen with that in mind. Clackmannanshire includes coastal places, where outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland. Walls facing the sea are usually the first to need attention.
Alloa: In the older streets around Alloa North Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Alloa Academy, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clackmannanshire
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Signs you need gutter sealing
Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Temperature changes make gutters move, and old seals crack or slip.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Dripping gutter ends
- Rain getting in around a garage door
When something else is needed
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Brackets that have snapped or loosened
- A gutter length that has split
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
Leave it or put it right?
A new garage door isn’t needed for a leaking frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough, if the frame itself is sound.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- The length of the guarantee

FAQs for Clackmannanshire
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
Can you reach high gutters?
It depends on the access. Tell us the height and what’s around the gutter and we’ll confirm what’s needed.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
Yes, as long as the gutter itself is in good order. The joint is cleaned and dried first so the seal holds.
