Gutter Sealing in Drumsturdy
Professional gutter sealing in and around Drumsturdy, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Drumsturdy
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Resealing the joint is often all it needs, as long as the gutter is sound. If you’re dealing with cracked sealant along roofline trims and water running down the wall below the gutter, we can put it right.
Older stone buildings need a sealant that suits the stone, not an acetoxy product that can mark or attack it. Newer houses need their movement joints and roofline trims kept sound.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Drumsturdy and across Dundee.

Drumsturdy questions
I let a flat near Monifieth station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is gutter sealing in a coastal place like Drumsturdy any different?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
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.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
What happens if it’s left?
A bead squeezed onto a wet joint might hold for a while, but it soon lets go. Proper preparation is the difference. Around Drumsturdy, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
Why us?
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work

- We leave the area clean and tidy
- You choose the colour before work begins
See our cost guide and our reviews.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What sealant work can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
- A gutter length that has split
- Blocked downpipes
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Garage door frames
- Soffit joints
- Gutter joints
- Gutter end caps
- Roofline trims
- uPVC fascias
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. Movement will pull the joints open again.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. Water down the wall all winter can cause damp.

Walls and rooflines in Drumsturdy
Drumsturdy is close to 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. Dundee sits on the north bank of the Tay, and much of its older housing is sandstone tenements.
Letting a property close to Monifieth station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Schools such as Monifieth High School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Do you need gutter sealing in Drumsturdy?
Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Temperature changes make gutters move and that movement opens up tired joints.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
If you live in an older home near Newbigging Parish Church And War Memorial, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
