What we are called out for in Ferryhill
Debris in the gutter keeps water sitting at the joints. Water that cannot drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.
Look out for any of the following:
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
- Garage door frames letting rain in
Provost Skene's House, about 0.8 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Ferryhill, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.

How we handle gutter sealing in Ferryhill
Across Ferryhill, we reseal gutter joints, end caps and roofline trims. Low-level work is straightforward, and for higher work, tell us about access and we will confirm what’s needed. If you have trim joints where the sealant has failed and streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint, we can help, on gutter joints, garage door frames and gutter end caps alike.
Gutters and downpipes on tall city tenements are a long way up, so a leaking joint can run down the stone for months before anyone notices. For a building in Ferryhill, access is planned first, and shared parts may need the other owners to agree.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

What else we do in Ferryhill
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Standing water strains every seal.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches inside.
How the visit works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours in most cases. Parking in city streets around Ferryhill can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. If you’re in a flat, let us know how we get in at the street door.
- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- We clean out each joint.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- We check our work before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
Ferryhill questions
I let a flat near Aberdeen station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Does the coastal weather in Ferryhill affect outside sealant?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. The right product, a clean joint and the right depth all help it cope.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Do you install new fascias or gutters?
Replacement is not our trade. If a gutter is broken or sagging, we will tell you.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
What does gutter sealing cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ferryhill
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
What happens if it’s left?
If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing won’t help. We look at what’s really happening and point you to the right trade if needed. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Ferryhill buildings and the weather
Ferryhill is within about 2 miles of 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. Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.
If you let a flat or house near Aberdeen station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Managing a site like Ferryhill Primary School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
