Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Greenbank
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Resealing the joint is often all it needs, as long as the gutter is sound. If you are dealing with internal damp traced to a gutter joint and wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint, we can help.
On a four-storey tenement, gutter joints are a long way from the street, so a leaking joint can run down the stone for months before anyone notices. In Greenbank, access needs planning, and work on shared parts may need the other owners’ agreement.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. In Greenbank, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter isn’t broken or sagging.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- The joint is dried, because sealant won’t bond to a wet surface.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

What gutter sealing looks like in Greenbank
Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
Whitefoord House, about 3 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Greenbank. Rented homes near Slateford station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Firrhill High School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.
Greenbank is about 2 miles south of Edinburgh, in Edinburgh. Wherever you are in the EH10 postcode area, our applicators can take on gutter sealing. Greenbank is one of 175 places in Edinburgh where we work for gutter sealing.

What happens if it’s left?
A new garage door isn’t needed for a leaking frame. Sealing the frame usually stops it. Private landlords in Greenbank must meet the Repairing Standard, and damp or leaks can fall short of it, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry and the wall below.
How the job changes by surface
Roofline trims
Trim joints are cut out and resealed suited to the material.
Gutter joints
A dripping joint does not always mean a failed gutter. Resealing is usually enough.

- The old material and how stubborn it is
