Gutter sealing in Charlestown, done properly
We do not replace gutters, fascias or roofs. What sealant does is close joints; it won’t fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. Common call-outs are for old sealant on roofline trims that has split and gaps along fascia and soffit joints, across garage door frames, gutter end caps and soffit joints.
External sealant needs dry surfaces, so outdoor work around Charlestown is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every wall and roofline.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Questions from Charlestown
I let a flat near Portlethen station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Charlestown?
Yes, Charlestown is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Where do you work from?
We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Is sealing fascia joints something you do?
We do. We seal the joints, not replace the boards and we will let you know if a board has failed.
Surface by surface
uPVC fascias
Fascia board joints can open up. We seal them neatly in a suitable colour.
Gutter joints
A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A dedicated gutter sealant suits them.
How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Outside jobs in Charlestown need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- Each joint is cleaned and any old sealant removed.
- The joints are dried.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- We check our work before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’re 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 fails, we can still redo it.
Quotes for gutter sealing in Charlestown
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The number and length of the joints
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

- Roughly how big the job is
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.
When to call us in Charlestown
Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Water that can’t drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
In the older streets around St Mary's Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

Why act early in Charlestown
If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing won’t help. We check the cause first and tell you if something else is needed. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What you get with us
- You choose the colour before work begins

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Have sagging gutters refixed early
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Look along the fascias for open joints
Give the sealant the cure time we tell you before poking or cleaning near it.
A drip from a gutter joint will not stop on its own. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall and that can cause damp inside.
Outside joints around Charlestown
Charlestown is within about 2 miles of the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Aberdeen’s nickname, the Granite City, comes from its stone buildings, and sealing against granite needs clean, sound edges and a sealant that suits stone.
Managing a site like Lochside Academy? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing. For landlords with property near Portlethen station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
