Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
Have a look at the gutter during a downpour. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job.
Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Pitkerro
We seal leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascia and soffit joints, along with roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work, not replacing the gutter. Common call-outs are for damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter and fascia boards with gaps between them, across gutter end caps, gutter joints and roofline trims.
In a Scottish city tenement, the roof, gutters and outside walls are shared by all the flats. For a tenement in Pitkerro, repairs to shared parts are usually agreed between the owners, often through a property factor.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Questions from Pitkerro
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Pitkerro?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
How is work on the outside of a tenement in Pitkerro usually arranged?
Most tenements arrange shared repairs through the owners or a property factor. The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 sets the rules for common parts if the deeds do not, and we can quote for the factor or the owners directly.
Can you reach high gutters?
Single-storey and low-level gutters are straightforward. For higher work, tell us about access and we will confirm what’s needed.
How long does gutter sealing take?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Can you fit new guttering?
No, we reseal joints and trims. A gutter installer or roofer deals with replacement.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
How it works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins.

If you’re in a flat, let us know how we get in at the street door.

Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Pitkerro buildings and the weather
Pitkerro is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Dundee sits on the north bank of the Tay, and much of its older housing is sandstone tenements.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Ninian's Episcopal Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. If you look after a building such as Craigie High School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Common problems we fix in Pitkerro
Gutter joints depend on seals that wear out. Temperature changes make gutters move, and old seals crack or slip.
The most common problems we see are:
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
- End caps that drip every time it rains
For landlords with property near Dundee station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Gutter joints
Joints between gutter lengths are the most common leak point. We clean, dry and reseal them.
Gutter end caps
Stop ends hold back water at the end of a run. When their seal fails, they drip.
