FAQs for Innermessan
Does the coastal weather in Innermessan affect outside sealant?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.
I let a flat near Stranraer station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
How long does the job take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but most jobs take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. We will tell you when we quote.
Can you seal fascia and soffit joints?
Yes, often alongside gutter joints. The gaps are cleaned and sealed neatly with a suitable exterior sealant.
Can you reach high gutters?
It depends on the access. Tell us the height and what’s around the gutter when you send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Do you come to Innermessan?
Yes. We’re based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland, Innermessan included.
Gutter sealing in Innermessan, done properly
We don’t replace gutters, fascias or roofs. Sealant fixes joints; it will not fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. Common call-outs are for end caps that drip every time it rains and fascia boards with gaps between them, across soffit joints, uPVC fascias and gutter joints.
External sealant needs dry surfaces, so outdoor work around Innermessan is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us how to reach each wall, gutter and roofline.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

What sealant work can’t fix

- Roofline trims
Why it’s worth doing now in Innermessan
Replacing fascias because of open joints is normally unnecessary. A neat seal closes the gaps as long as the boards are in good condition. In an older home around Innermessan, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Letting agents and landlords in Innermessan can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise and avoid disturbing it.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job.

Innermessan is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, which means gutter, fascia and roofline joints has to cope with a lot of rain.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
