About our gutter sealing in Mastrick
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Often a reseal is enough, as long as the gutter is sound. We work on gutter end caps, uPVC fascias and soffit joints, and people most often call us about gaps along fascia and soffit joints and earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off.
Stone-built tenements in Scotland’s cities share their roof, gutters and outside walls between every flat in the building. In Mastrick, work on shared parts of a tenement is generally agreed between owners, often with a factor arranging it.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Mastrick buildings and the weather
Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex. Historic houses like Friendville (about 1.9 miles south-east) are a reminder that the area around Mastrick has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Historic houses such as Friendville, about 1.9 miles south-east, show how far back building around Mastrick goes, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls. If you look after a building such as Northfield Academy, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

What the job involves on each surface
uPVC fascias
We seal fascia joints, not replace the boards. Damaged boards need replacing by an installer.
Soffit joints
Soffits sit under the eaves, where joints can open up. We seal them to close the gaps.
What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. For a tenement in Mastrick, work inside your flat is between us and you, while shared parts may need the factor or neighbours to agree. It helps to know which it is when you get in touch.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- We make sure the joint is dry before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters and outdoor use.
- The run is checked and any debris near the joints is cleared.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave a sagging gutter
- Don’t lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
Look at fascia and trim joints when you’re checking the gutters. A small split is quicker to put right.
A drip from a gutter joint won’t stop on its own. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall and that can cause damp inside.
Your questions about gutter sealing in Mastrick
How is work on the outside of a tenement in Mastrick normally arranged?
Shared parts of a tenement, such as the roof and outside walls, are usually repaired with the agreement of the owners, often through a property factor. Where the title deeds are silent, the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 fills the gaps. Windows often belong to the individual flat, but it’s worth checking your deeds.
I let a flat near Aberdeen station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
What guarantee comes with the job?
Our 12-month guarantee applies on every job.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
What does gutter sealing cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
