How we handle gutter sealing in Cardrona
Failed sealant round a garage door frame lets rain blow in. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame with an exterior sealant. If you’re dealing with damp patches inside below a leaking gutter and streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint, we can put it right.
In and around a place like Cardrona, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Cardrona and across the Scottish Borders.

Why it’s worth doing now in Cardrona
Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts, but it soon lets go. Proper preparation is the difference. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

What the job involves on each surface
Soffit joints
Soffits sit under the eaves, where joints can open up. We seal them to close the gaps.
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. We use a sealant made for outdoor joints.
What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Outside jobs in Cardrona need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
- The joints are dried.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
What gutter sealing looks like in Cardrona
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface.
Around Cardrona, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. Homes close to William Cree Memorial Church include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Common questions in Cardrona
Do you cover smaller places like Cardrona?
Yes, Cardrona is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is there a guarantee on gutter sealing in Cardrona?
All our work, in Cardrona and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do you install new fascias or gutters?
We don’t replace gutters or fascias. We will tell you if the gutter needs replacing so you can call the right trade.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can tenants book the work?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Keep downpipes clear
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Sort out a dripping joint early
Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss so water doesn’t sit on the joints. Standing water strains every seal.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry and the wall below.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
