Lybster Gutter Sealing
Sealing leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascias, soffits and roofline trims for homes and businesses in Lybster and across Highland. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- End caps that drip every time it rains
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Deal with a drip before winter
Keep downpipes clear, so water can get away. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches.
Gutter sealing in Lybster
A lot of gutter leaks come down to one tired joint. The joint is cleaned, dried and resealed with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you. We work on gutter joints, roofline trims and uPVC fascias, and common reasons people get in touch are failed sealant on a garage door frame and end caps that drip every time it rains.
Older stone buildings need a sealant that suits the stone, not an acetoxy product that can mark or attack it. Newer houses need their movement joints and roofline trims kept sound.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

When it is not the sealant

- Guttering that needs replacing

- Problems with the roof covering

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Why deal with it now?
Leaving a leaking end cap can send water down the wall all winter. Resealing it is a quick job before the damage spreads. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lybster
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How the visit works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Lybster may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- We make sure the joint is dry before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
How to get a quote

Outside joints around Lybster
Lybster is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.
In and around Lybster, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you live in an older home near St Mary's Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
