Gutter sealing in Burnside of Duntrune

About our gutter sealing in Burnside of Duntrune

Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Resealing the joint is often all it needs if the gutter is not damaged. We are often asked to deal with water dripping where gutter sections meet and open joints in fascias and soffits, across gutter joints, roofline trims and soffit joints.

Stone walls need a stone-friendly sealant, as acetoxy products can attack some stone. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.

Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Dundee.

Keeping the joints in good condition

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Make sure downpipes are not blocked
  • Get leaks sealed before the wet months
  • Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
  • Keep ladders off the guttering

Keep downpipes clear, so water can get away. 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.

Burnside of Duntrune questions

Will you come out to Burnside of Duntrune?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Does the coastal weather in Burnside of Duntrune affect outside sealant?

Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you offer different sealant colours?

In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in.

Is gutter cleaning part of the job?

We clear debris around the joints we’re sealing. A full clean of the gutters isn’t part of it.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We work from Crawley. We cover Burnside of Duntrune and the rest of Dundee, along with the rest of our area.

Different surfaces, different methods

Gutter end caps

A leaking end cap sends water straight down the wall. It’s a quick reseal.

Garage door frames

A fresh seal around the frame stops rain getting in.

Leave it or put it right?

If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing will not help. We check the cause first and tell you if something else is needed. In an older home around Burnside of Duntrune, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

What gutter sealing looks like in Burnside of Duntrune

Burnside of Duntrune is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Dundee sits on the north bank of the Tay, and much of its older housing is sandstone tenements, so gutter, fascia and roofline joints on walls facing the water can take plenty of weather.

Letting a property close to Broughty Ferry station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Schools such as Braeview Academy are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

When something else is needed

In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
  • Water backing up from a blocked pipe
  • Rotten or damaged fascia boards

Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Landlord and commercial work in Burnside of Duntrune

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Can I do it myself?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. The joint is dried before sealing.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the work
