Advice
How we handle gutter sealing in Dowally
A drip at a gutter joint is easy to ignore, but each shower sends water to the same place. Resealing it is a small job while the gutter is still sound. We work on gutter end caps, soffit joints and uPVC fascias, and the jobs we see most are dripping gutter ends and gaps along fascia 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.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we have gone.

Common problems we fix in Dowally
Roofline sealant ages in sun and rain. It goes hard, cracks and pulls away after some years.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
For landlords with property near Dunkeld & Birnam station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.
Before booking anyone
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How the colour is chosen

- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Roof leaks, slipped tiles or failed flashing (a roofer’s job)
- A gutter length that has split
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How the job changes by surface
Gutter end caps
A leaking end cap sends water straight down the wall. It’s a quick reseal.
uPVC fascias
We seal fascia joints, not replace the boards. Damaged boards need replacing by an installer.
Dowally buildings and the weather
Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
If you live in an older home near St Anne's Church and Churchyard, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Your questions about gutter sealing in Dowally
Can you do gutter sealing in Dowally?
Yes, Dowally is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Dunkeld & Birnam station?
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.
Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?
Not for long. The joint will pull apart, so the fall and brackets need sorting first.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Dowally and the rest of Perth and Kinross, along with the rest of our area.
Can you reach high gutters?
Low-level work is easiest. For anything higher, we’ll confirm what access is needed once we know more.
Do you seal gaps in fascias and soffits?
We do. We seal the joints, not replace the boards, and if a board is damaged, we will tell you.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
What guarantee comes with the job?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.
What affects the cost of gutter sealing
We do not publish a price list. What we look at:
- The number of rooms or windows
- When we can work, for business premises
- The product the joint needs
- Any mould that needs treating
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If someone has resealed it before
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Why deal with it now?
A bead squeezed onto a wet joint might hold for a while but it tends to peel off. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

- Colour agreed with you before we start
