About our gutter sealing in Arbuthnott
A lot of gutter leaks come down to one tired joint. We clean out the joint, dry it and reseal it using a gutter sealant. If the gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include trim joints where the sealant has failed and garage door frames letting rain in, across gutter joints, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias.
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.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Different surfaces, different methods
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. An exterior sealant suits them.
Gutter joints
A dripping joint doesn’t always mean a failed gutter. Sealing the joint often stops it.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Outside jobs in Arbuthnott need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

What gutter sealing looks like in Arbuthnott
Arbuthnott is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
If you live in an older home near Arbuthnott Parish Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

Arbuthnott: your questions answered
Does the coastal weather in Arbuthnott affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Will you come out to Arbuthnott?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What guarantee comes with the job?
You get our 12-month guarantee to all our work.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Is gutter cleaning part of the job?
We clear what’s around the joints we work on. Full gutter cleaning is a separate job.
Will sealing fix a sagging gutter?
No. If the gutter sags, the joints keep opening, so the brackets need fixing first.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What sealant work cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Boards that have decayed or split
- Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
- Guttering that needs replacing
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

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.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
