Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Gutter sealing in Dunkeld, done properly
Many dripping gutters are just a failed joint or end cap. We clean out the joint, dry it and reseal it with a sealant made for guttering. If the gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include old sealant on roofline trims that has split and leaking gutter joints and stop ends, across gutter joints, garage door frames and gutter end caps.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Dunkeld depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every wall and roofline.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Outdoor work around Dunkeld depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Outside joints around Dunkeld
Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, 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 failed outside joints work against that.

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise and avoid disturbing it.
Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains, which can lead to staining and damp.
What the job involves on each surface
Garage door frames
Failed sealant around a garage door frame lets water in. We cut it out and reseal.

- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The size of the job
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
