Gutter sealing in Lathones, done properly
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Resealing it is a small job if the gutter is otherwise in good order. We work on garage door frames, soffit joints and uPVC fascias, and the jobs we see most are rain getting in around a garage door and old gutter sealant that has let go.
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.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Watch for drips in a downpour
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour now and then. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we’ll tell you.
How the job changes by surface
Gutter end caps
We seal end caps from the inside where we can reach, after cleaning and drying.
uPVC fascias
We seal fascia joints, not replace the boards. If boards are damaged, we’ll tell you.
Signs you need gutter sealing in Lathones
Roofline sealant ages in sun and rain. It goes hard, cracks and pulls away over time.
Look out for these signs:
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Dripping gutter ends
Around Lathones, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Before you book anyone

- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How the colour is chosen
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Why act early in Lathones
A dripping gutter joint keeps wetting the same patch of wall. Left, it can stain walls and lead to 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.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Gutter sealing in Lathones: 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. Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.
Homes close to Largoward Parish Church include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- The joint is dried before sealing.
