Hirst Gutter Sealing
Problem with your gutter and fascia joints in Hirst? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a 12-month guarantee.

- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
What the job involves on each surface
Soffit joints
Open soffit joints let draughts in. We close them with a suitable sealant.
Gutter joints
Most gutter leaks start at a joint between sections. They’re cleaned out, dried and resealed.
About our gutter sealing in Hirst
Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Resealing the joint is often all it needs, as long as the gutter is sound. If you’re dealing with end caps that drip every time it rains and drips from gutter joints and end caps, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older stone buildings need a sealant that suits the stone, not an acetoxy product that can mark or attack it. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Gutter sealing in Hirst: local notes
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. 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.

Landlord and commercial work in Hirst
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. Splits are easier to seal early.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we’ll tell you.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Outdoor work around Hirst depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- We clean out each joint.
- The joints are dried.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
