Gutter end caps
End caps are resealed where they meet the gutter once clean and dry.
Gutter joints
A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.

Macmerry buildings and the weather
Macmerry is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. 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 Longniddry station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside. Schools such as Ross High School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Macmerry questions
Do you cover smaller places like Macmerry?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Does the coastal weather in Macmerry affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Gutters that have dropped or pulled away
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
If you are not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Look along the fascias for open joints
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
Check the joints after heavy rain now and then. It’s the easiest time to see a leak.
Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. The same spot gets soaked every time it rains and that can cause damp inside.
