About our gutter sealing in Glenelg
It’s easy to live with a dripping gutter joint, but the water lands on the same spot every time it rains. Resealing it is a small job if the gutter is otherwise in good order. Typical jobs include open joints in fascias and soffits and trim joints where the sealant has failed, on garage door frames, soffit joints and roofline trims.
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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Glenelg and everywhere else we cover.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving a leaking end cap can send water down the wall all winter. It’s a small job to put right compared with treating damp later. Around Glenelg, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Glenelg buildings and the weather
Glenelg is within about 1 mile of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. 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 joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.
Managing a site like Bernera School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Different surfaces, different methods
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 happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter is not cracked or sagging.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Related advice
FAQs for Glenelg
Is gutter sealing in a coastal place like Glenelg any different?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Is Glenelg in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes, Glenelg is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
In many cases, yes. A clean, dry joint resealed with gutter sealant usually stops the drip. If the section is split or warped, it needs replacing.
Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?
We do. Our work is the joints and we will let you know if a board has failed.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.
