When you live along the beautiful but often battering East Lothian coastline, your gutters are your home's first line of defence. From the salt spray hitting the roofs of North Berwick to the heavy rainfall common across the Lammermuir Hills, the local weather can be incredibly tough on your drainage system.
At Roof Fix Services Limited, we understand that guttering isn't just about catching rain, it's about protecting the very fabric of your home. Whether you are dealing with a blocked downpipe near the River Esk in Musselburgh or need a full repair on a traditional stone house near the Haddington Corn Exchange, our team is here to help.

We are proud to be a certified Edinburgh Trusted Trader with 351 reviews and a stellar 4.9/5 rating. Across all platforms, we have amassed over 500 reviews from satisfied local customers who value our honesty and craftsmanship.
Why Gutter Maintenance is Critical in East Lothian
The East Lothian landscape is diverse, but the challenges for homeowners are often the same. Coastal properties in Dunbar and North Berwick face accelerated corrosion of metal gutters due to salt air, while homes in leafy areas like Tranent and Haddington often struggle with blockages from leaves and moss.
Neglecting your gutters can lead to:
- Penetrating Damp: Water overflowing from blocked gutters runs down your stone or harled walls, eventually soaking through to your interior décor.
- Foundation Issues: Pooled water at the base of your house can undermine the ground, especially in older properties.
- Timber Rot: Overflowing water often finds its way into fascia boards and rafter tails, leading to expensive structural repairs.
We don’t just "clear" gutters; we ensure the entire system is functioning correctly. We also provide Free photographic roof reports with every inspection, giving you total transparency on the condition of your home from a perspective you rarely see.

High-Definition CCTV Inspections
Scaffolding is expensive and often unnecessary for a simple inspection. That is why we use High-Definition CCTV chimney and gutter surveys. These modern diagnostic tools allow us to see exactly what is happening inside your gutters and downpipes from ground level.
By identifying the precise location of a blockage or a cracked joint, we can often carry out repairs using Rope Safety / Roof Access techniques. This saves our customers hundreds of pounds in unnecessary scaffolding costs while ensuring the job is done safely and accurately.
Pricing Transparency (2026 Rates)
We believe in being upfront about costs. While every house is unique, these guide prices for 2026 help you understand the likely investment for your gutter and roof maintenance:
- Small house repairs (max 2 storey): £85 + VAT + materials
- Rope Safety / Roof Access: £240 + VAT + materials

- Scaffolding: £500 + VAT upwards (depends on building height)
