About our gutter sealing in Longmorn
For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. So the old sealant and grime come out first, then dry the joint before sealing. Common call-outs are for cracked sealant along roofline trims and end caps that drip every time it rains, across uPVC fascias, soffit joints and gutter end caps.
Stone walls need a stone-friendly sealant, as acetoxy products can attack some stone. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Why it’s worth doing now in Longmorn
A dripping stop end can soak the wall right through the wet months. It’s a small job to put right before the damage spreads. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why us?
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Tidy, careful work

Longmorn: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Longmorn?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you cover Longmorn for gutter sealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Longmorn is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we are fully insured.
How long does gutter sealing take?
A typical job takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Will sealant fix a dripping gutter joint?
In many cases, yes. A clean, dry joint resealed with gutter sealant generally stops the drip. A split or warped section needs replacing.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
Check the joints after heavy rain. Drips are easiest to spot while it’s raining.
Rain getting in round a garage door frame can damage what’s stored inside. Resealing the frame is a quick job while the frame is sound.

Do you need gutter sealing in Longmorn?
Roofline sealant ages in sun and rain. It hardens, shrinks and splits after some years.
Look out for these signs:
- Cracked sealant along roofline trims
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Garage door frames letting rain in
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
Letting a property close to Elgin station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.
What your quote should include
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they’re fully insured
- When the joint can take water or movement

The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Outside jobs in Longmorn need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter is not broken or sagging.
- The joint or trim is cleaned out and old sealant removed.
- We make sure the joint is dry before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Move anything stored near the joints

Longmorn buildings and the weather
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that. Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.
Managing a site like Elgin High School? Then larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.
