About our gutter sealing in Townhead
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Sealing it is quick while the gutter is still sound. If you are dealing with fascia boards with gaps between them and old gutter sealant that has let go, we can help.
On a four-storey tenement, gutter joints are a long way from the street, and a slow drip can stain and soak the stone for a long time before it’s spotted. In Townhead, access needs planning, and work on shared parts may need the other owners’ agreement.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

How the job changes by surface
Roofline trims
We seal the trims, not the roof. Roofing problems need a roofer.
uPVC fascias
Open fascia joints look untidy and can let water in. A neat bead closes them up.
Walls and rooflines in Townhead
Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Historic houses like Provand's Lordship (about 0.4 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Townhead has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Provand's Lordship, about 0.4 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Townhead. For landlords with property near Glasgow Queen Street station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Make sure downpipes are not blocked
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise and avoid disturbing it.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. Resealing the frame is a quick job while the frame is sound.
The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work usually takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Inside a flat in Townhead, the job is planned with you; outside, shared parts may need the factor or other owners involved. It helps to know which it is when you get in touch.
- We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- The joint is dried before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- 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
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Common problems we fix in Townhead
Water spilling over a blocked gutter is often mistaken for a leak. If the downpipe is blocked, water has nowhere to go so we check the cause first.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Allan Glen's School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.
What your quote should include
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether they’re fully insured
- When the joint can take water or movement
DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
What happens if it’s left?
You do not need new fascias just because the joints have opened. A neat seal closes the gaps as long as the boards are in good condition. For landlords in Townhead, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
