Gutter sealing in Perth and Kinross: how it works

Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. So the old sealant and grime come out first, then dry the joint before sealing. We are often asked to deal with failed sealant on a garage door frame and open joints in fascias and soffits, on uPVC fascias, gutter end caps and gutter joints.

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access.

  1. We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
  2. Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
  3. We make sure everything is dry.
  4. The sealant is applied and finished.
  5. We check our work before we leave.

Walls and rooflines across Perth and Kinross

Our gutter sealing work across Perth and Kinross covers homes, blocks and business premises, in Perth, Blairgowrie and Rattray and Crieff and well beyond. Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so the work is planned around the weather.

Scotland has its own building regulations, and homes here bring their own details: harled walls, sash and case windows and, in the larger towns and cities, tenements. Perth and Kinross is part of the area we cover across Scotland. Perth and Kinross includes coastal places, where outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland. Joints on seaward walls tend to fail first.

Perth: Schools such as Perth High School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. Rented homes near Perth station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Why deal with it now?

A dripping stop end can soak the wall right through the wet months. Resealing it is a quick job before the damage spreads.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • Whether you can choose the colour

Keeping the joints in good condition

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
  • Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
  • Keep downpipes clear

Keep downpipes clear so the gutter can drain. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.

The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. We’ll let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.

How the job changes by surface

Soffit joints

We choose a sealant colour that suits the soffit.

uPVC fascias

We seal fascia joints, not replace the boards. Damaged boards need replacing by an installer.
