About our gutter sealing in Dillarburn
For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. So the old sealant and grime come out first, then dry the joint before sealing. Common call-outs are for internal damp traced to a gutter joint and cracked sealant along roofline trims, across garage door frames, roofline trims and uPVC fascias.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Dillarburn depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us how to reach each wall, gutter and roofline.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Common problems we fix in Dillarburn
Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Standing water finds the weakest joint and leaks out.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Water dripping where gutter sections meet
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
For an older house near a landmark such as Abbeygreen Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Gutter sealing in Dillarburn: local notes
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. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Lesmahagow High School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. Rented homes near Lanark station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
What happens on the day
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run, including the tidy-up. 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, and the visit is planned around that.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter isn’t cracked or sagging.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- We make sure the joint is dry before sealing.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

What else we do in Dillarburn
Why deal with it now?
A new garage door isn’t needed for a leaking frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough, if the frame itself is sound. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
