Gutter sealing in Aird
Garage door frames let rain in when the sealant around them fails. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame using a sealant made for outdoor use. Typical jobs include wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint and internal damp traced to a gutter joint, across gutter end caps, roofline trims and garage door frames.
Older stone buildings need a sealant that suits the stone, not an acetoxy product that can mark or attack it. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Walls and rooflines in Aird
Aird is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface.
If you look after a building such as Aird Primary School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
Aird is in Na h-Eileanan Siar. From the centre of Aird to the outskirts, we cover gutter sealing for every kind of property. Our Na h-Eileanan Siar coverage runs to 87 places, Aird among them.

Honest limits

What else we do in Aird
For landlords and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
When to call us in Aird
Sagging sections pull joints apart. Resealing a sagging joint will not last so the brackets need attention first.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Failed sealant on a garage door frame
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
In and around Aird, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

FAQs for Aird
Does the coastal weather in Aird affect outside sealant?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
Do you cover smaller places like Aird?
Yes. Aird is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll explain our choice.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
What does gutter sealing cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before work begins.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we are fully insured.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Different surfaces, different methods
Soffit joints
Gaps at soffit joints can let in draughts and insects. A neat seal closes them.
Gutter end caps
Drips from a stop end run down the brickwork. It’s a quick reseal.
Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
What happens on the day
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Outdoor work around Aird depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
