About our gutter sealing in Marywell
Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Often a reseal is enough if the gutter is not damaged. We are often asked to deal with water dripping where gutter sections meet and water running down the wall below the gutter, on gutter end caps, gutter joints and soffit joints.
External sealant needs dry surfaces, so outdoor work around Marywell is planned around the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every wall and roofline.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Marywell questions
I let a flat near Portlethen station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Marywell?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a few hours. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available.
Outside joints around Marywell
Marywell is close to 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. Aberdeen’s nickname, the Granite City, comes from its stone buildings, and granite is hard and dense, so any sealant against it needs clean, sound edges to grip.
Friendville, about 3.4 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Marywell. Schools such as Portlethen Academy are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Common problems we fix in Marywell
Sagging sections pull joints apart. Sealing will not hold if the gutter keeps dropping, so the gutter needs refixing first.
Look out for any of the following:
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
If you let a flat or house near Portlethen station, leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
- Watch for drips in a downpour
Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. A reseal sorts it while the frame is sound.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

- First we agree which joints need sealing.
- We clean out each joint.
- We make sure everything is dry.
- The sealant is applied and finished.
- The joints are checked once sealed.
