About our gutter sealing in Ancrum
We do not replace gutters, fascias or roofs. Sealant fixes joints and it can’t mend broken brackets, split sections or blocked downpipes. If you are dealing with water dripping where gutter sections meet and internal damp traced to a gutter joint, we can put it right.
Stone walls need a stone-friendly sealant, as acetoxy products can attack some stone. Newer houses need their movement joints and roofline trims kept sound.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

FAQs for Ancrum
Is there a guarantee on gutter sealing in Ancrum?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover Ancrum for gutter sealing?
Yes, Ancrum is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Do you replace gutters or fascias?
No. We seal joints; replacing gutters and fascias needs a gutter or roofline installer.

Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, often. Several properties can be quoted together.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
How much does gutter sealing cost in Ancrum?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
Single-storey work is the most straightforward. For anything higher, we will confirm what access is needed once we know more.
What affects the quote in Ancrum
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- The number of rooms or windows
- When we can work, for business premises
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The number and length of the joints
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked, so water can get away. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
If an end cap is dripping, deal with it before winter. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches.
What happens if it’s left?
A new garage door is not needed for a leaking frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough, if the frame itself is sound. In a place like Ancrum, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

When to call us in Ancrum
Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Temperature changes make gutters move, and old seals crack or slip.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- End caps that drip every time it rains
For an older house near a landmark such as Ancrum Old Parish Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Outside joints around Ancrum
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.
Around Ancrum, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
