Gutter sealing in Portskerra, done properly
Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first and the joint is dried before the new sealant goes in. If you’re dealing with garage door frames letting rain in and end caps that drip every time it rains, we can put it right, on gutter joints, garage door frames and soffit joints alike.
Across smaller places in Scotland, stone and harled cottages, farm buildings and newer houses often stand exposed to wind and rain. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What happens if it’s left?
Replacing fascias because of open joints is usually unnecessary. A neat seal closes the gaps as long as the boards are in good condition. Around Portskerra, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Common questions in Portskerra
Is Portskerra within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do gutter sealing in Portskerra?
Yes, Portskerra is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
In many cases, yes. Cleaning, drying and resealing the joint generally works. If the section is split or warped, it needs replacing.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Is the work guaranteed?
You get our one-year guarantee to all our work.
Do you work on high-level gutters?
It depends on the access. Let us know the height and the ground below and we will confirm what’s needed.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.
Walls and rooflines in Portskerra
Portskerra 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. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
In and around Portskerra, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For jobs in and around Portskerra, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Somewhere like Portskerra may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter isn’t cracked or sagging.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- We make sure the joint is dry before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
Also in Portskerra
For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
