Across County Fermanagh — Enniskillen and beyond — we clear the eaves channel and weep slots and reseal or repair the eaves beam joints. Photos first, then a written fixed price.

The eaves beam is the frame around the base of a lantern, and most designs have a drainage channel inside it that lets water out through small weep slots. We carry out eaves beam and gutter repairs across County Fermanagh, with a guide price from your photos and a fixed price in writing before any work starts.

Signs you need eaves beam and gutter repairs

  • Drips along the bottom edge of the lantern
  • Moss, leaves or grit visible along the base
  • Staining on the lining just below the eaves

What usually causes it?

Blocked weep slots

Debris settles at the eaves and blocks the outlets, so the channel fills and overflows inward.

Open corner joints

The eaves beam is mitred or jointed at the corners; if the joint seal fails, water drops straight through.
