Gutter sealing for Riccarton homes and businesses

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.

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.

Gutter sealing in Riccarton, done properly

Open fascia and soffit joints spoil the roofline and can let weather in. They’re sealed in a matching colour where possible. If you are dealing with old sealant on roofline trims that has split and quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last, we can put it right, on gutter end caps, soffit joints and garage door frames alike.

In and around a place like Riccarton, 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 our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in East Ayrshire.

How the visit works

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Somewhere like Riccarton may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter is not broken or sagging.
  2. Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
  3. The joint is dried, because sealant won’t bond to a wet surface.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
  5. We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice

Why act early in Riccarton

Replacing guttering is a much bigger job than sealing joints. If the gutter is sound and the drip is a joint a reseal is all it needs. If it has failed, we will tell you. In an older home around Riccarton, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Watch for drips in a downpour
  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
  • Glance at the soffit joints now and then
  • Get leaks sealed before the wet months

If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. If it drops, the joints will open.

Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.

Different surfaces, different methods

Soffit joints

Garage door frames
