Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Borestone
Failed sealant round a garage door frame lets rain blow in. We cut out the old sealant and reseal the frame with an exterior sealant. We work on uPVC fascias, roofline trims and soffit joints, and common reasons people get in touch are fascia boards with gaps between them and damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter.
External sealant needs dry surfaces, so outdoor work around Borestone is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us how to reach each wall, gutter and roofline.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Stirling.

Why deal with it now?
Water from a leaking joint hits the same spot every time. Over time that can stain brickwork, mark render and encourage damp so early sealing is worthwhile. Around Borestone, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- We never seal over old sealant
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- More than 20 years in sealant work

Soffit joints

Roofline trims
Roofline trims rely on sealant at their joints. Split sealant lets water in.
What affects the cost of gutter sealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Working hours on commercial sites
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Walls and rooflines in Borestone
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. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
In and around Borestone, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Rented homes near Stirling station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Make sure downpipes are not blocked
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. Splits are easier to seal early.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. Resealing the frame is a quick job.
What we do, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Outside jobs in Borestone need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First, we find the drip and check the gutter isn’t cracked or sagging.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- The joint is dried, because sealant won’t bond to a wet surface.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
