Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
About our gutter sealing in Hardgate
A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Sealing it is quick if the gutter is otherwise in good order. Common call-outs are for water dripping where gutter sections meet and failed sealant on a garage door frame, across gutter joints, garage door frames and soffit joints.
In and around a place like Hardgate, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Why deal with it now?
Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts but it tends to peel off. Proper preparation is the difference. 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.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Outside joints around Hardgate
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface.
Rented homes near Singer 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 Clydebank High School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Surface by surface
Roofline trims
Trims along the roofline are often finished with sealant. Split sealant lets water in.
Garage door frames
Garage door frames let rain in when their sealant fails. It’s removed and renewed.
How it works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access in most cases. Outside jobs in Hardgate need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. 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.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. If it drops, the joints will open.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches inside.
