Gutter sealing in Humbie, done properly
We seal leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascia and soffit joints plus roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s all about the joints, not replacing the gutter. We work on roofline trims, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias, and people most often call us about earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off and internal damp traced to a gutter joint.
Across smaller places in Scotland, stone and harled cottages, farm buildings and newer houses often stand exposed to wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering.
Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Different surfaces, different methods
Gutter joints
Gutter joints move and sit in water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.
Roofline trims
We seal the trims, not the roof. A roofer deals with the roof itself.
What affects the cost of gutter sealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height
- When we can work, for business premises
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: 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.

Why it’s worth doing now in Humbie
You don’t need to replace a garage door because rain gets in round the frame. Resealing the frame joint is often enough. In an older home around Humbie, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Humbie questions
Is gutter sealing in Humbie guaranteed?
All our work, in Humbie and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Humbie in your area for gutter sealing?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Humbie is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Is gutter cleaning part of the job?
We clean the joints we’re sealing and any debris nearby is cleared. A full gutter clean is a separate service.
What sealant work cannot fix
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Water backing up from a blocked pipe
- Sagging gutters or broken brackets
- Problems with the roof covering
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.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Roofline trims
- Soffit joints
- uPVC fascias
- Gutter end caps
- Gutter joints
- Garage door frames
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Keep downpipes clear
- Look along the fascias for open joints
Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise before poking or cleaning near it.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.

Outside joints around Humbie
Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Around Humbie, as everywhere, gutter sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. In the older streets around Humbie Parish Church, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.

How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access and we leave things clean and tidy. Outside jobs in Humbie need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- 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 joint is dried, because sealant won’t bond to a wet surface.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property
