How we handle gutter sealing in Alford

We don’t replace gutters, fascias or roofs. Sealant fixes joints; it won’t fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. We work on roofline trims, garage door frames and soffit joints, and people most often call us about water dripping where gutter sections meet and damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter.

In and around a place like Alford, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard, so they need a sealant that moves with the building.

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Aberdeenshire.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Alford

Is Alford in your area for gutter sealing?

Yes, Alford is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.

Do the sealants smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.

Do I have to be there?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How long before the joint can be used?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.

What sealant work can’t fix

  • Rotten or damaged fascia boards
  • Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
  • Blocked downpipes

Walls and rooflines in Alford

Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Alford Academy, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get leaks sealed before the wet months
  • Look at the gutters while it’s raining
  • Check that water runs out of the downpipes
  • Glance at the soffit joints now and then

Look at fascia and trim joints when you are checking the gutters. A small split is quicker to put right.

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

Signs you need gutter sealing in Alford

Sealant on fascias and trims weathers like any outdoor joint. It goes hard, cracks and pulls away over time.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
  • Fascia boards with gaps between them
  • Drips from gutter joints and end caps
  • Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint

If you live in an older home near St Andrew's Episcopal Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

  • What the cure time is
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Which colour the sealant will be

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY versus a professional finish

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.

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.
