Gutter sealing near Bogend

The process

We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Outside jobs in Bogend need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.

  1. First we agree which joints need sealing.
  2. We clean out each joint.
  3. The joints are dried.
  4. We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
  5. We check our work before we leave.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

How we handle gutter sealing in Bogend

Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Resealing the joint is often all it needs if the gutter is not damaged. If you have fascia boards with gaps between them and damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Stone walls need a stone-friendly sealant, as acetoxy products can attack some stone. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What affects the quote in Bogend

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The amount of work
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Access and height

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

What to tell us for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details, and pictures are welcome.

DIY versus a professional finish

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

How the job changes by surface

Roofline trims

We seal the trims, not the roof. A roofer deals with the roof itself.

Garage door frames

The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. We use a sealant made for outdoor joints.

What gutter sealing looks like in Bogend

With historic houses such as Carnell Estate (about 4.5 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Bogend as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for gutter, fascia and roofline joints to keep out.

Rented homes near Kilmarnock station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Homes close to Symington Parish Church include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Common questions in Bogend

Is Bogend within the area you cover?

Do you cover Bogend for gutter sealing?

Yes, Bogend is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.

Are you insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

Is sealing fascia joints something you do?

Yes, it’s a common job. Each joint is cleaned and sealed with a suitable exterior sealant.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.

Do you work on high-level gutters?

Low gutters are simple to reach. For higher work, tell us about access and we will confirm what’s needed.

Keeping the joints in good condition

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Do not leave a sagging gutter
  • Keep downpipes clear
  • Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
  • Look at the gutters while it’s raining

If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. Movement will pull the joints open again.

The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. We’ll let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.

Landlord and commercial work in Bogend

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

When something else is needed

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
  • Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
  • Fascias that need replacing

Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
