About our gutter sealing in Cathkin
A lot of gutter leaks come down to one tired joint. We clean out the joint, dry it and reseal it with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter itself has failed, we say so. Typical jobs include old gutter sealant that has let go and end caps that drip every time it rains, on roofline trims, gutter joints and soffit joints.
Older stone buildings need a sealant that suits the stone, not an acetoxy product that can mark or attack it. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Walls and rooflines in Cathkin
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. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, which means gutter, fascia and roofline joints has to cope with a lot of rain.
For landlords with property near Burnside station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Fernhill School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Surface by surface
Soffit joints
Gaps at soffit joints can let in draughts and insects. A neat seal closes them.
uPVC fascias
Fascia board joints can open up. They’re sealed tidily with a matching sealant where possible.
Leave it or put it right?
A dripping gutter joint keeps wetting the same patch of wall. Over time that can stain brickwork, mark render and encourage damp, so it’s worth sealing early. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

Is Cathkin in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Cathkin is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Burnside station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Do you guarantee gutter sealing?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Can a leaking gutter joint be sealed?
Normally, if the gutter is sound. We clean and dry the joint before sealing so the seal holds.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Will you clear out my gutters?
We clear debris around the joints we’re sealing. A full clean of the gutters is not part of it.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Make sure downpipes are not blocked
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. Movement will pull the joints open again.
If an end cap is dripping, deal with it before winter. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches inside.
Honest limits
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Fascias that need replacing
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
