How to look after the new joints

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Keep ladders off the guttering
  • Keep downpipes clear
  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
  • Do not leave a sagging gutter

Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Standing water strains every seal.

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.

Gutter sealing in Muirhead

Gaps along uPVC fascias and soffits look untidy and can let in water and draughts. They’re sealed in a matching colour where possible. We work on gutter end caps, uPVC fascias and roofline trims, and the jobs we see most are streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint and internal damp traced to a gutter joint.

In and around a place like Muirhead, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Muirhead and everywhere else we cover.

When to call us in Muirhead

Gutter joints depend on seals that wear out. Sun and cold make the gutter expand and contract and that movement opens up tired joints.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Old gutter sealant that has let go
  • Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
  • Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
  • Rain getting in around a garage door

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Chryston High School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

How to choose a mastic man

Muirhead: your questions answered

Will you come out to Muirhead?

Yes. Muirhead is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you work for landlords with property near Gartcosh station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.

Is sealant enough for a gutter that has dropped?

Not for long. The movement opens the joint again so the gutter has to be refixed first.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.

How long does gutter sealing take?

Typically it takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Usually, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.

Why deal with it now?

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. Around Muirhead, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

How the job changes by surface

Soffit joints

Gaps at soffit joints can let in draughts and insects. A neat seal closes them.

Gutter end caps

A leaking end cap sends water straight down the wall. It’s a quick reseal.

How it works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Outside jobs in Muirhead 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. Work indoors isn’t affected.

  1. We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
  2. We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
  3. The area is dried so the sealant can bond.
  4. An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We check the run and clear any debris we find while we’re there.

Before we arrive

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Can I do it myself?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

What gutter sealing looks like in Muirhead

Glasgow’s tenements are largely red and blond sandstone, and porous sandstone needs a sealant that won’t mark it. Muirhead is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for gutter, fascia and roofline joints to keep out.

If you let a flat or house near Gartcosh station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
