Gutter sealing in Ardtun, done properly

We work across Ardtun on leaking gutter joints and roofline trims. Single-storey and low gutters are simple to reach and if it’s higher up, let us know and we will confirm what access is needed. We work on soffit joints, roofline trims and garage door frames, and people most often call us about garage door frames letting rain in and drips from gutter joints and end caps.

Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Ardtun depends on the weather. Let us know about access to every wall and roofline.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Common problems we fix in Ardtun

Roofline sealant ages in sun and rain. It goes hard, cracks and pulls away over time.

People usually contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
  • Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
  • Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
  • Rain getting in around a garage door

Around Ardtun, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What your quote should include

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • How long the guarantee is
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get leaks sealed before the wet months
  • Don’t leave a sagging gutter
  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
  • Check the gutters during heavy rain

While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. Splits are easier to seal early.

Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry and the wall below.

What happens if it’s left?

Sealant will not clear a blocked downpipe. We look at what’s really happening and point you to the right trade if needed. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.

Why Ardtun clients choose us

Outside joints around Ardtun

Ardtun 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. 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.

For an older house near a landmark such as Kilvickeon Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

Ardtun is about 29 miles west of Oban, in Argyll and Bute. Jobs in Ardtun get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. Our Argyll and Bute coverage runs to 118 places, Ardtun among them.

Quotes for gutter sealing in Ardtun

You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The product the joint needs
  • The size of the job
  • When we can work, for business premises

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved and give you a clear quote.

DIY versus a professional finish

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

FAQs for Ardtun

Do you cover Ardtun for gutter sealing?

Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Ardtun is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.

Does the coastal weather in Ardtun affect outside sealant?

Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.

Where are you based?

We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?

Not for long. The movement opens the joint again so the gutter has to be refixed first.

Do I have to be there?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?

In most cases, yes. If the gutter is sagging or cracked, sealing won’t last and we will say so.

How long will you be here?

A typical job takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.

What does gutter sealing cost?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.

The process

On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. The work usually takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.

  1. We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

How to prepare

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
