About our gutter sealing in Achiltibuie
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. If you’re dealing with streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint and stop ends leaking at the end of a run, we can put it right, on garage door frames, soffit joints and roofline trims alike.
Across smaller places in Scotland, stone and harled cottages, farm buildings and newer houses often stand exposed to wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering, so they need a sealant that moves with the building.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll quote.

What affects the quote in Achiltibuie

The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Outdoor work around Achiltibuie depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- We clean out each joint.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- We check our work before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
Achiltibuie buildings and the weather
Achiltibuie is within about 1 mile 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.
Around Achiltibuie, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. Whether the job is in Achiltibuie itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Achiltibuie is in Highland. Across the IV26 area, our applicators can take on gutter sealing. Our area takes in 253 places across Highland, from the larger towns to small villages.

Leave it or put it right?
You do not need to replace a garage door because rain gets in round the frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough. In a place like Achiltibuie, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
Make sure downpipes are not blocked, so water can get away. Blockages push water back along the gutter.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards.
Common questions in Achiltibuie
Do you cover Achiltibuie for gutter sealing?
Yes, Achiltibuie is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Does the coastal weather in Achiltibuie affect outside sealant?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we’re fully insured.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?
Not on its own. If the gutter sags, the joints keep opening, so the brackets need fixing first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
