Gutter sealing in Bowhill
Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. The joint is cleaned, dried and resealed using a gutter sealant. If the gutter itself has failed, we say so. If you have fascia boards with gaps between them and damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter, we can help, on gutter joints, roofline trims and garage door frames alike.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Bowhill depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us how to reach each wall, gutter and roofline.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

What affects the cost of gutter sealing
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any working-time requirements on site
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

- Roughly how big the job is
- The type of property
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Will you clear out my gutters?
We clean the joints we’re sealing and clear debris we find nearby. A full gutter clean is a separate service.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Landlords and agents in Bowhill can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

What gutter sealing looks like in Bowhill
Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, 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 sound outside sealant is part of that.
If you let a flat or house near Cardenden station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. For an older house near a landmark such as St Fothad's Parish Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. Schools such as Lochgelly High School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Why deal with it now?
Replacing guttering is a much bigger job than sealing joints. Where the gutter is in good order and only a joint leaks, resealing is the sensible fix. If it has failed, we’ll tell you. In an older home around Bowhill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Advice
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise and avoid disturbing it.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. A reseal sorts it.
