Gutter sealing near Shieldaig

Gutter sealing in Shieldaig, done properly

We do not replace gutters, fascias or roofs. What sealant does is close joints; it won’t fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. If you are dealing with drips from gutter joints and end caps and old gutter sealant that has let go, we can put it right, on soffit joints, garage door frames and roofline trims alike.

In and around a place like Shieldaig, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Check that water runs out of the downpipes
  • Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
  • Have sagging gutters refixed early
  • Keep the gutters clear of debris

Look at fascia and trim joints when you are checking the gutters. Splits are easier to seal early.

A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. Resealing the frame is a quick job.

When it isn’t the sealant

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
  • Water backing up from a blocked pipe
  • Guttering that needs replacing

Outside joints around Shieldaig

Shieldaig 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’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Shieldaig is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, which means gutter, fascia and roofline joints has to cope with a lot of rain.

Whether the job is in Shieldaig itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish. Around Shieldaig, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Shieldaig questions

Is Shieldaig in your area for gutter sealing?

Yes, Shieldaig is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Will you come out to Shieldaig?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Is it messy?

No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?

In most cases, yes. If the gutter is sagging or cracked, sealing will not last, and we will tell you.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

Do you clean gutters?

We clear what’s around the joints we work on. A full clean of the gutters isn’t part of it.

Surface by surface

Gutter end caps

Stop ends hold back water at the end of a run. When their seal fails, they drip.

Soffit joints

Soffit joints are sealed in a colour to suit.

Why deal with it now?

You do not need new fascias just because the joints have opened. Sealing the joints tidies them up if the boards are sound. In a place like Shieldaig, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

What you get with us

  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

DIY versus a professional finish

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

What happens on the day

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Outdoor work around Shieldaig depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.

  1. We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter is not broken or sagging.
  2. We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
  3. The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
  4. An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
