Gutter sealing in Taobh Lochaidh

Gutter sealing in Taobh Lochaidh, done properly

We seal leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascia and soffit joints plus roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work rather than new guttering. If you’re dealing with stop ends leaking at the end of a run and water dripping where gutter sections meet, we can help, on roofline trims, garage door frames and gutter joints alike.

Older stone buildings need a sealant that suits the stone, not an acetoxy product that can mark or attack it. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Taobh Lochaidh as everywhere else we work.

How the job changes by surface

uPVC fascias

Gaps in fascias spoil the roofline. Sealing them closes the gap.

Roofline trims

We seal the trims, not the roof. A roofer deals with the roof itself.

Why it’s worth doing now in Taobh Lochaidh

Water from a leaking joint hits the same spot every time. Over time that can stain brickwork, mark render and encourage damp so early sealing is worthwhile. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Watch for drips in a downpour
  • Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
  • Sort out a dripping joint early
  • Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter

Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss so water does not sit on the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.

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.

What gutter sealing looks like in Taobh Lochaidh

Taobh Lochaidh is within about 2 miles of 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. Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.

If you look after a building such as Lochaber High School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

FAQs for Taobh Lochaidh

I let a flat near Banavie station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Does the coastal weather in Taobh Lochaidh affect outside sealant?

Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.

Will it make a mess?

Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Is there any odour?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.

How long before the joint can be used?

Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
