- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
Leave it or put it right?
Replacing guttering is a much bigger job than sealing joints. Where the gutter is in good order and only a joint leaks a reseal is all it needs. If it’s broken or sagging, a gutter installer needs to look. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

How we handle gutter sealing in Viewhill
Our work covers gutter joints and end caps as well as fascias and soffits plus roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work rather than new guttering. We’re often asked to deal with rain getting in around a garage door and end caps that drip every time it rains, across gutter end caps, roofline trims and garage door frames.
External sealant needs dry surfaces, so outdoor work around Viewhill is planned around the weather. Let us know about access to every wall and roofline.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Signs you need gutter sealing in Viewhill
A sealant applied to a damp or dirty joint won’t bond. Rushed repairs often don’t last long.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Water dripping where gutter sections meet
- Dripping gutter ends
- Garage door frames letting rain in
For an older house near a landmark such as Barn Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Viewhill buildings and the weather
Viewhill is close to 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. Viewhill 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.
Schools such as Culloden Academy are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. Rented homes near Inverness Airport station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
FAQs for Viewhill
I let a flat near Inverness Airport station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is gutter sealing in a coastal place like Viewhill any different?
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.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?
Yes, often alongside gutter joints. The gaps are cleaned and sealed neatly with a suitable exterior sealant.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Sealing a sagging joint won’t last. A gutter installer needs to refix it.
