Gutter sealing in Skinflats, done properly
We seal leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascia and soffit joints, along with roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s all about the joints rather than new guttering. We are often asked to deal with gaps along fascia and soffit joints and internal damp traced to a gutter joint, across gutter end caps, uPVC fascias and roofline trims.
Across smaller places in Scotland, stone and harled cottages, farm buildings and newer houses often stand exposed to wind and rain. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard, so they need a sealant that moves with the building.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Look along the fascias for open joints
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise before poking or cleaning near it.
Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.
The process
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run for a typical job. For a place like Skinflats, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Outside joints around Skinflats
Skinflats 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. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Graeme High School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. If you let a flat or house near Falkirk Grahamston station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

What the job involves on each surface
uPVC fascias
We seal fascia joints, not replace the boards. If boards are damaged, we’ll tell you.
Garage door frames
Failed sealant around a garage door frame lets water in. It’s removed and renewed.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
