About our gutter sealing in Earlsferry
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That is why we take out the old sealant and dirt first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. If you have stop ends leaking at the end of a run and rain getting in around a garage door, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Across smaller places in Scotland, stone and harled cottages, farm buildings and newer houses often stand exposed to wind and rain. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Earlsferry
Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Water that cannot drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
In and around Earlsferry, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Walls and rooflines in Earlsferry
Earlsferry is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Michael And All Angels Episcopal Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What happens if it’s left?
A dripping gutter joint keeps wetting the same patch of wall. Over time that can stain brickwork, mark render and encourage damp, so it’s worth sealing early. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Earlsferry: your questions answered
Is Earlsferry within the area you cover?
Yes. Earlsferry is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is gutter sealing in a coastal place like Earlsferry any different?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, gutter and fascia work included.
How much does gutter sealing cost in Earlsferry?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
In many cases, yes. Cleaning, drying and resealing the joint generally works. A split or warped section needs replacing.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter is not broken or sagging.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- We make sure the joint is dry before sealing.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about any water getting in

Different surfaces, different methods
Roofline trims
Roofline trims rely on sealant at their joints. When it splits, water can get behind.
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. We use a sealant made for outdoor joints.
