Gutter sealing in Lochmaddy
For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. That is why we take out the old sealant and dirt first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. We are often asked to deal with failed sealant on a garage door frame and earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off, on uPVC fascias, gutter joints and garage door frames.
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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Lochmaddy
Is Lochmaddy within the area you cover?
Yes. Lochmaddy is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is Lochmaddy in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes, Lochmaddy is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Can tenants book the work?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Will you clear out my gutters?
We clear debris near the joints because the joint must be clean. A full gutter clean is a separate job.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
How do I get a quote for gutter sealing in Lochmaddy?
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.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
It depends on the access. Tell us the height and what’s around the gutter when you drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Should I try it myself 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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
What we are called out for in Lochmaddy
A sealant applied to a damp or dirty joint will not bond. Rushed repairs often don’t last long for this reason.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
Around Lochmaddy, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours for a typical job. 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.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any tricky access

Lochmaddy buildings and the weather
Lochmaddy is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Work on the islands has to be planned around ferry crossings and the weather, so the more notice, the better.
Whether the job is in Lochmaddy itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Lochmaddy (Gaelic: Loch nam Madadh) is in Na h-Eileanan Siar. For gutter sealing in and around Lochmaddy, it’s easy to get a quote: please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk. We cover Na h-Eileanan Siar from our Crawley base, Lochmaddy included. 87 places in Na h-Eileanan Siar are on our list, from the larger towns to small villages.
We work across HS6 for gutter sealing and the streets around it. We also cover Clachan Shannda (5 miles north-west), Locheport (6 miles south-west), Ruisgarry (8 miles north), Claddach Kirkibost (9 miles west) and Leverburgh (12 miles north-east). Island and remote addresses take a little more planning, so tell us where you are when you ask for a quote.
Local landmarks in Lochmaddy
Well-known places in the area include Taigh Chearsabhagh Museum and Arts Centre (0.6 miles south-east). Not far away are Loch Fada and North Lee.
What affects the quote in Lochmaddy
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- When we can work, for business premises
- Access and height
- Any mould that needs treating
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Helping us quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the property is
- Roughly how big the job is
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
Keep downpipes clear so the gutter can drain. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. We will let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.

What the job involves on each surface
Gutter end caps
Stop ends hold back water at the end of a run. A failed seal makes them leak.
Gutter joints
A dripping joint does not always mean a failed gutter. Resealing is usually enough.
