DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Voe
Our work covers gutter joints and end caps as well as fascias and soffits, along with roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work rather than new guttering. We are often asked to deal with gaps along fascia and soffit joints and drips from gutter joints and end caps, on gutter joints, roofline trims and garage door frames.
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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What affects the quote in Voe
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Mould in or behind the old joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email

Signs you need gutter sealing in Voe
Sealant on fascias and trims weathers like any outdoor joint. It goes hard, cracks and pulls away after some years.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Failed sealant on a garage door frame
- Dripping gutter ends
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
Around Voe, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What the cure time is
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Keep downpipes clear
- Watch for drips in a downpour
Check the joints after heavy rain. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. We will let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
- A gutter length that has split
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

FAQs for Voe
Do you cover Voe for gutter sealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Voe is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is gutter sealing in a coastal place like Voe any different?
Coastal homes put outside sealant through more weather than inland ones, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we’re fully insured.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
Generally, if the gutter is sound. The joint is cleaned and dried first so the sealant bonds.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
How long will you be here?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. We will give you a better idea when we quote.

Outside joints around Voe
Voe 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. On the islands, wind and salt spray are hard on outside sealant.
If you live in an older home near Voe Kirk, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
