About our gutter sealing in Douglastown
Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. We clean out the joint, dry it and reseal it using a gutter sealant. If the gutter itself has failed, we say so. We work on uPVC fascias, soffit joints and roofline trims, and the jobs we see most are cracked sealant along roofline trims and water running down the wall below the gutter.
In and around a place like Douglastown, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Gutter sealing in Douglastown: local notes
Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
In and around Douglastown, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Douglastown is about 3 miles south-west of Forfar, in Angus. Our applicators cover gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Douglastown. Our Angus coverage runs to 40 places, and Douglastown is one of them. There’s also a page for Dundee, about 10 miles away.

What happens if it’s left?
Sealant will not clear a blocked downpipe. We check the cause first and point you to the right trade if needed. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The rough size of the job
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. Splits are easier to seal early.
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.
