- Rain getting in around a garage door
How the job changes by surface
Gutter end caps
End caps take the pressure of water running along the gutter. A failed seal makes them leak.
uPVC fascias
Fascia board joints can open up. They’re sealed tidily with a matching sealant where possible.
Gutter sealing in Dumbreck, done properly
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 if the gutter is otherwise in good order. Typical jobs include leaking gutter joints and stop ends and trim joints where the sealant has failed, across soffit joints, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias.
On a four-storey tenement, gutter joints are a long way from the street, so a leaking joint can run down the stone for months before anyone notices. In Dumbreck, access needs planning, and work on shared parts may need the other owners’ agreement.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What we can’t put right

Questions from Dumbreck
Do you cover Dumbreck for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Dumbreck is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Dumbreck station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Is sealing fascia joints something you do?
We do. Our work is the joints, and if a board is damaged, we’ll tell you.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Do you replace gutters or fascias?
No. We seal leaking joints, end caps and trims. Replacement needs a gutter installer or roofer.
Do you need gutter sealing in Dumbreck?
When a gutter sags, its joints open. Sealing will not hold if the gutter keeps dropping, so the gutter needs refixing first.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
- Open joints in fascias and soffits

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
Give the sealant the cure time we tell you before poking or cleaning near it.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we will tell you.
