Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Mossbank
Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Resealing the joint is often all it needs if the gutter isn’t damaged. We work on gutter end caps, gutter joints and roofline trims, and common reasons people get in touch are stop ends leaking at the end of a run and cracked sealant along roofline trims.
External sealant needs dry surfaces, so outdoor work around Mossbank is planned around the weather. Let us know about access to every wall and roofline.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Mossbank may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter isn’t cracked or sagging.
- 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.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Mossbank buildings and the weather
Mossbank is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Work on the islands has to be planned around ferry crossings and the weather, so give us as much notice as you can.
For jobs in and around Mossbank, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish. Around Mossbank, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Look along the fascias for open joints
Clear the gutters once or twice a year so water does not sit on the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards.
Questions from Mossbank
Is Mossbank within the area you cover?
Yes, Mossbank is covered. We work across all of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you do gutter sealing in Mossbank?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Mossbank is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you guarantee gutter sealing?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, gutter and fascia work included.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
In many cases, yes. Cleaning, drying and resealing the joint usually works. A split or warped section needs replacing.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- How easy the joints are to reach

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Mossbank and across the Shetland Islands. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
