Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Bruntsfield
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Often a reseal is enough, as long as the gutter is sound. If you have quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last and damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter, we can help, whatever the surface.
Gutters and downpipes on tall city tenements are a long way up, and a slow drip can stain and soak the stone for a long time before it’s spotted. In Bruntsfield, access needs planning, and work on shared parts may need the other owners’ agreement.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Bruntsfield questions
How do repairs to the shared parts of a tenement in Bruntsfield get organised?
The owners of the flats usually agree repairs to shared parts like the roof and outside walls, and many buildings have a factor to arrange it. The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 sets out how that works where the title deeds don’t. Windows often belong to the individual flat, but it’s worth checking your deeds.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Haymarket station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Will sealing fix a sagging gutter?
Not for long. The movement opens the joint again so the gutter has to be refixed first.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Do you work on high-level gutters?
It depends on the access. Let us know the height and the ground below and we will confirm what’s needed.
Can you fit new guttering?
No, we reseal joints and trims. Replacement needs a gutter installer or roofer.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Bruntsfield buildings and the weather
Bruntsfield is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Schools such as Boroughmuir High School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. Rented homes near Haymarket station change hands often, and leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. If you live in an older home near Morningside United Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Why it’s worth doing now in Bruntsfield
Sealant won’t clear a blocked downpipe. We check the cause first and tell you if something else is needed. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in Bruntsfield, damp can spread through stone and plaster before anyone sees it.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
Keep downpipes clear so the gutter can drain. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job while the frame is sound.
What the job involves on each surface
Gutter joints
A dripping joint does not always mean a failed gutter. Sealing the joint often stops it.
Garage door frames
Garage door frames let rain in when their sealant fails. We cut it out and reseal.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself generally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run, depending on the amount of work.
