Do you need gutter sealing in Cowcaddens?

Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Aloysius' College, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Why act early in Cowcaddens
Replacing guttering is a much bigger job than sealing joints. Where the gutter is in good order and only a joint leaks, resealing is the sensible fix. If it has failed, we will tell you. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start.

Cowcaddens buildings and the weather
Glasgow’s tenements are largely red and blond sandstone, and sandstone is porous, so any sealant against it has to be one that will not stain or attack it. Under the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004, shared parts of a tenement, such as the roof and outside walls, are looked after by the owners together, and many buildings use a factor to arrange it. Your title deeds say which parts are shared.
Tenement House, about 0.3 miles west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Cowcaddens. Rented homes near Charing Cross (Glasgow) station change hands often, and leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. A small split is quicker to put right.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we’ll tell you.
