About our gutter sealing in Bonnyrigg

Across Bonnyrigg, we reseal gutter joints, end caps and roofline trims. Single-storey and low gutters are simple to reach and if it’s higher up, let us know and we’ll confirm what access is needed. If you have trim joints where the sealant has failed and old gutter sealant that has let go, we can help, on garage door frames, soffit joints and uPVC fascias alike.

In a town like Bonnyrigg, plenty of homes have harled (roughcast) walls, and sealing where harling meets a frame or pipe takes a sealant that can grip a rough surface. Gutters and fascias here take plenty of Scottish weather too.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

When it isn’t the sealant

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Sagging gutters or broken brackets
  • A gutter length that has split
  • Rotten or damaged fascia boards

If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.

Keeping the joints in good condition

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

  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
  • Have sagging gutters refixed early
  • Deal with a drip before winter
  • Watch for drips in a downpour

Check the joints after heavy rain now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.

Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall and that can cause damp inside.

How the job changes by surface

Gutter joints

Gutter joints move and sit in water. A dedicated gutter sealant suits them.

Roofline trims

Trims along the roofline are often finished with sealant. When it splits, water can get behind.

When to call us in Bonnyrigg

A sealant applied to a damp or dirty joint will not bond. Some quick repairs peel off within a season or two for this reason.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
  • Open joints in fascias and soffits
  • Trim joints where the sealant has failed
  • Water dripping where gutter sections meet

For an older house near a landmark such as Bonnyrigg Parish Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Our hiring checklist

Outside joints around Bonnyrigg

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. Historic houses like Melville Castle (about 1.3 miles north) are a reminder that the area around Bonnyrigg has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.

Rented homes near Eskbank station change hands often, and leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. Managing a site like Lasswade High School Centre? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Can I do it myself?

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.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

How the visit works

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access in most cases. A visit in Bonnyrigg needs three things planned: access, parking and where the work is. Outside work depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
  2. Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
  3. We make sure everything is dry.
  4. The sealant is applied and finished.
  5. We check our work before we leave.

Before we arrive

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
