Leave it or put it right?
Sealant will not clear a blocked downpipe. We check the cause first and tell you if something else is needed. In an older home around Elie, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

About our gutter sealing in Elie
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 if the gutter is otherwise in good order. We work on roofline trims, gutter end caps and gutter joints, and the jobs we see most are open joints in fascias and soffits and earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off.
Across smaller places in Scotland, stone and harled cottages, farm buildings and newer houses often stand exposed to wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering, so they need a sealant that moves with the building.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. For a place like Elie, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- We clean out each joint.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
Outside joints around Elie
Elie is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Elie Parish Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

What the job involves on each surface
Gutter joints
Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. They’re cleaned out, dried and resealed.
Roofline trims
Trims along the roofline are often finished with sealant. Split sealant lets water in.
Common problems we fix in Elie
Debris in the gutter keeps water sitting at the joints. Standing water finds the weakest joint and drips through.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Water running down the wall below the gutter
- Failed sealant on a garage door frame
In and around Elie, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
- Keep downpipes clear
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Look along the fascias for open joints
While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. Splits are easier to seal early.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry.
Common questions in Elie
Is Elie within the area you cover?
Yes, Elie is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Elie?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, regularly. Several properties can be quoted together.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.
Is gutter cleaning part of the job?
The joints we seal are cleaned out and any debris nearby is cleared. A full gutter clean is a separate service.
Where are you based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is sealing fascia joints something you do?
Yes, often alongside gutter joints. Each joint is cleaned and sealed with a suitable exterior sealant.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
