What failing gutters do to your home
Your gutters and roofline are what keep rainwater off your walls, so when they fail, damp and rot are not far behind. Kerse Roofing & Building repair, clear and replace guttering, fascias and soffits across Falkirk and the wider Forth Valley. From a leaking joint to a full uPVC roofline replacement, we will get it looking right and working properly again. This page is for Falkirk-area homeowners with overflowing gutters, tired fascia boards, or a roofline that is due for renewal.
Blocked or broken gutters send water down the wall instead of away from it. Over time that means damp inside, green algae staining outside, rotten fascia boards, and problems at the wall head where the roof meets the wall. It is one of those jobs that looks minor but does real damage if it is ignored. Catching it early, and clearing the gutters before winter, is far cheaper than fixing the damp and rot that failing gutters cause.
uPVC roofline that looks after itself
Old timber fascias and soffits need painting and eventually rot. Replacing them with uPVC gives you a clean, crisp roofline that only needs a wipe down, and it will not flake or rot. We fit it in white or a colour to match your home, with matching guttering and downpipes, so the whole roofline works and looks like one job. One of our customers had their roofline replaced and was, in their own words, most impressed by the outcome.
Working safely at the roof edge
Roofline work happens at the eaves, three or four storeys up on some houses, so we set up proper access before anything comes off. Old timber boards and brittle cast iron or plastic gutters come down in sections, go straight into our vehicle and leave with us. Because the fascia is where the roof meets the wall, we also look at the last row of tiles or slates and the felt behind the gutter while it is exposed, and tell you if anything there needs attention.
What affects the price of roofline work
Roofline prices come down to the length of run and the height. A single-storey bungalow with one straight run of gutter is a very different job from a three-storey semi with dormers, bays and a porch roof. Replacing only the gutters costs less than fascias, soffits and gutters together, but doing the whole roofline at once saves disturbing new gutters to reach old boards later. We measure it on site and give you a fixed written price, with no callout fee.
How a roofline replacement is done
- Measure and check. We measure every run, note where downpipes need to go and check the timber rafter ends behind the old fascia for rot.
- Strip the old roofline. Old gutters, downpipes, fascia and soffit boards are taken down carefully so the roof edge is not disturbed.
- Fit new uPVC boards. New fascias and soffits go on, with ventilation where the roof needs it and felt support at the eaves so water runs into the gutter.
- Gutters, falls and downpipes. New guttering is fitted with the right fall towards each outlet, then downpipes are connected, tested with water and the site is cleared.

Your roofline is more than one job, so we cover all of it:
- Guttering repairs. Sealing leaking joints, refixing sagging runs and replacing broken sections.

I am most pleased with the workmanship and work ethic of the Kerse team who replaced my flat roof. The team were on time and incredibly hard working, neat, most polite and anxious to please. Though the job got delayed two days due to rain, they more than made up for it by completing work in less than 2 days. I would fully recommend Kerse roofing to anyone looking for excellent service!
Why choose Kerse for your roofline
- Roofers, not just gutter fitters. Leaking gutters are often caused by slipped tiles or failed felt at the eaves, and we fix the cause as well as the gutter.
- Rot dealt with, not hidden. If rafter ends behind an old fascia have rotted, we tell you before covering them over with new boards.
- Gutters that actually drain. We set the falls and outlets so water reaches the downpipes instead of pooling or spilling over the front.
- Repair or replace, your choice. A sagging run refixed or a whole new uPVC roofline, priced separately so you can decide.
- Trading since 2009, with over 100 reviews across Google, Yell, Checkatrade and FreeIndex.
Common questions
Can you just repair my gutters, or do I need new ones?
Often a repair will do, sealing a leaking joint or refixing a sagging run. If the guttering is old, brittle or sagging all over, replacement gives a better and longer-lasting result. We will tell you honestly which you need and give you a fixed written price either way.
Is it worth replacing fascias, soffits and gutters at the same time?
Usually, yes. The gutter brackets fix to the fascia, so replacing gutters on old boards means disturbing them again when the boards fail. Doing the whole roofline once gives one clean, matching finish and one job at height. If only the gutters are the problem, we will say so and price that instead.
Do you clear blocked gutters?
Yes. We clear out leaves, moss and debris so the water flows away properly, and we can check the roofline for any damage while we are up there. Clearing gutters before winter is one of the cheapest ways to avoid damp problems later.
Why are my fascias rotting?
Timber fascias soak up water once the paint fails, especially behind leaking or overflowing gutters. Replacing them with uPVC solves it for good, as it will not rot or need painting. We usually renew the guttering at the same time so the whole roofline is sound.
Do you match the colour to my house?
Yes. We fit uPVC guttering, fascias, soffits and downpipes in white or a colour to suit your home, so the finished roofline looks like one clean, matching job rather than a patch.
Why do my gutters overflow even though they are clear?
The usual causes are gutters that have lost their fall and hold water in the middle, joints that have dropped, or too few downpipes for the size of roof. Heavy moss washing down from the tiles can also block outlets quickly. We check the fall along each run and fix the cause.
Areas we cover for guttering and roofline
Timber fascias on older bungalows and ex-council houses around Falkirk, Grangemouth and Larbert are where we see the most rot, usually behind gutters that have overflowed for years. Exposed spots near the Forth in Grangemouth and Bo’ness take the worst of the wind-driven rain, which shows up quickly in blocked or sagging gutters. We fit new roofline across the Forth Valley. See our local pages for Falkirk, Grangemouth, Stirling, Linlithgow and Cumbernauld.

While the roof edge is open, it is a good time for roof cleaning and moss removal or any roof repairs.
