About our gutter sealing in Lauder
Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Resealing the joint is often all it needs if the gutter is not damaged. We work on uPVC fascias, soffit joints and gutter end caps, and common reasons people get in touch are damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter and rain getting in around a garage door.
In and around a place like Lauder, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard, so they need a sealant that moves with the building.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in the Scottish Borders.

Landlord and commercial work in Lauder

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Walls and rooflines in Lauder
Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
If you live in an older home near St Mary's Parish Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
A drip from a gutter joint won’t stop on its own. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall, which can lead to staining and damp.
What we do, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Somewhere like Lauder may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

What happens if it’s left?
A new garage door isn’t needed for a leaking frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough. In a place like Lauder, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Common problems we fix in Lauder
Overflowing gutters can look like leaking joints. A blocked downpipe makes water back up so we check the cause first.
Look out for these signs:
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
For landlords with property near Stow station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

uPVC fascias
