We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
  • Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)

Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

  • Roofline trims
  • Gutter end caps
  • uPVC fascias
  • Garage door frames
  • Gutter joints

About our gutter sealing in Stepps

Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. The joint is cleaned, dried and resealed with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter itself has failed, we say so. We are often asked to deal with open joints in fascias and soffits and earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off, on garage door frames, gutter joints and roofline trims.

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

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Why act early in Stepps

Sealant will not clear a blocked downpipe. We look at what’s really happening and point you to the right trade if needed. Around Stepps, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

What you get with us

  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • We’re fully insured
  • We agree the colour with you first

When to call us in Stepps

End caps get knocked or pushed by water. Once the seal behind them fails, they drip.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Dripping gutter ends
  • Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
  • Garage door frames letting rain in
  • Cracked sealant along roofline trims

Provand's Lordship, about 4.3 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Stepps, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
  • Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
  • Get leaks sealed before the wet months
  • Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters

Have a look at the gutter during a downpour now and then. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.

The sooner a gutter leak is sealed, the less water reaches the wall. We will let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.

Stepps buildings and the weather

Glasgow’s tenements are largely red and blond sandstone, and sandstone is porous, so any sealant against it has to be one that will not stain or attack it. Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.

For landlords with property near Stepps station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Chryston High School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

What affects the quote in Stepps

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • How much there is to do
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Any mould that needs treating

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

What happens on the day

At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Stepps may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Common questions in Stepps

Do you cover Stepps for gutter sealing?

Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Stepps is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Will you come out to Stepps?

Yes, Stepps is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

What does gutter sealing cost?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.

Can you seal fascia and soffit joints?

Yes. Open joints along uPVC fascias and soffits can be sealed in a colour to suit.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, it will not last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.

Will you clear out my gutters?

Only around the joints we seal because the joint must be clean. Cleaning the whole run is a separate job.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

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 fails, we can still redo it.
