Gutter, fascia & soffit sealing in Broughton, South Lanarkshire
Gutter and fascia joints in Broughton need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
Gutter sealing in Broughton
Gutter and fascia replacement isn’t our trade, and nor is roofing. What sealant does is close joints; it will not fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. If you have end caps that drip every time it rains and streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint, we can put it right.
In and around a place like Broughton, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Surface by surface
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. We use a sealant made for outdoor joints.
Gutter end caps
Drips from a stop end run down the brickwork. It’s a quick reseal.
Common problems we fix in Broughton
Sealant on fascias and trims weathers like any outdoor joint. It hardens, shrinks and splits after some years.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- Dripping gutter ends
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
In and around Broughton, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Outdoor work around Broughton depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We look at the gutters, fascias and trims and agree the joints to seal.
- We clean out each joint.
- The joints are dried.
- We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Related advice
Can I do it myself?
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. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. A small split is quicker to put right.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp.
Common questions in Broughton
What guarantee comes with gutter sealing in Broughton?
All our work, in Broughton and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will you come out to Broughton?
Yes. Broughton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What does gutter sealing cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Do you replace gutters or fascias?
Replacement isn’t our trade. If a gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you.
What happens if it’s left?
If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing will not help. We check the cause first and tell you if something else is needed. In an older home around Broughton, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

What gutter sealing looks like in Broughton
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. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
For an older house near a landmark such as Broughton Parish Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
