Gutter sealing in Lochgelly, done properly
Gaps along uPVC fascias and soffits look untidy and can let in water and draughts. They’re sealed in a matching colour where possible. We are often asked to deal with failed sealant on a garage door frame and water dripping where gutter sections meet, on gutter joints, gutter end caps and soffit joints.
In and around a place like Lochgelly, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering, so they need a sealant that moves with the building.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

What happens if it’s left?
You don’t need new fascias just because the joints have opened. A neat seal closes the gaps if the boards are sound. In a place like Lochgelly, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Gutter sealing in Lochgelly: local notes
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.

Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Standing water finds the weakest joint and leaks out.

- Old gutter sealant that has let go
- Dripping gutter ends
Schools such as Lochgelly High School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
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.
How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Outdoor work around Lochgelly depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Sealing a sagging joint will not last. A gutter installer needs to refix it.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Will you clear out my gutters?
We clear what’s around the joints we work on. Full gutter cleaning is a separate job.
What the job involves on each surface
Gutter joints
When a joint drips, the gutter is often still sound. Sealing the joint often stops it.
Roofline trims
Roofline trims rely on sealant at their joints. Split sealant lets water in.
