Gutter sealing for homes and businesses in Ninewells
Open fascia and soffit joints spoil the roofline and can let weather in. They’re sealed in a matching colour where one is available. If you have garage door frames letting rain in and leaking gutter joints and stop ends, we can help, whatever the surface.
Gutters and downpipes on tall city tenements are a long way up, and a slow drip can stain and soak the stone for a long time before it’s spotted. For a building in Ninewells, access is planned first, and shared parts may need the other owners to agree.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Why it’s worth doing now in Ninewells
You do not need new fascias just because the joints have opened. Sealing the joints tidies them up if the boards are sound. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in a tall building in Ninewells, damp can travel a long way before it shows.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Full insurance on every job
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The product the joint needs

Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.
What gutter sealing looks like in Ninewells
Ninewells is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
Schools such as Menzieshill High School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. Camperdown House, about 1.5 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Ninewells, and older homes nearby need a sealant that suits their walls.
Ninewells is about 2 miles west of Dundee, in Dundee. Anywhere in DD2, our applicators can take on gutter sealing. Ninewells is one of 50 places in Dundee where we work.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Glance at the soffit joints now and then
If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. If it drops, the joints will open.
A leaking stop end is best sealed before the wet months. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches.
Questions from Ninewells
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Ninewells?
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. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.
Who arranges sealant work on the shared parts of a tenement in Ninewells?
It generally goes through the owners together, or through the factor if the building has one. The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 covers the common parts where the deeds don’t.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can tenants book the work?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we’re fully insured.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Generally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we will agree it with you first.
What about gutters on a second or third storey?
It depends on the access. Tell us the height and what’s around the gutter and we’ll confirm what’s needed.
How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours for a typical job. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. For a job in Ninewells, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- 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.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in

Signs you need gutter sealing in Ninewells
End caps get knocked or pushed by water. If the seal fails, water escapes at the end.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- End caps that drip every time it rains
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
- Old gutter sealant that has let go
If you let a flat or house near Invergowrie station, a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.
