How we handle gutter sealing in Peebles

We seal leaking gutter joints, end caps, fascia and soffit joints plus roofline trims and garage door frames. It’s joint work rather than new guttering. We work on gutter end caps, uPVC fascias and garage door frames, and the jobs we see most are open joints in fascias and soffits and trim joints where the sealant has failed.

In and around a place like Peebles, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering.

All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Peebles

A sealant applied to a damp or dirty joint will not bond. Rushed repairs often do not last long.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Water dripping where gutter sections meet
  • Dripping gutter ends
  • Trim joints where the sealant has failed
  • Open joints in fascias and soffits

If you look after a building such as Peebles High School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

10 questions to ask before booking

When it is not the sealant

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Brackets that have snapped or loosened
  • Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
  • Boards that have decayed or split

Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we seal

  • Roofline trims
  • Soffit joints
  • Gutter end caps
  • Garage door frames
  • Gutter joints
  • uPVC fascias

Keeping the joints in good condition

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Have sagging gutters refixed early
  • Sort out a dripping joint early
  • Check the gutters during heavy rain
  • Check that water runs out of the downpipes

Keep downpipes clear so the gutter can drain. A blocked pipe backs water up to the joints.

Leaking gutter joints get worse over time. Water keeps hitting the same part of the wall, which can lead to staining and damp.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Peebles

For anyone letting property in or around Peebles, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together, and we’re fully insured for the work.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

How it works

On the day, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Somewhere like Peebles may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
  2. The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
  3. The joint is dried before sealing.
  4. A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Getting a quote

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.

Advice

Common questions in Peebles

Will you come out to Peebles?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Is there a guarantee on gutter sealing in Peebles?

All our work, in Peebles and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

What does gutter sealing cost?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.

How long before the joint can be used?

Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.

Can tenants book the work?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.

Will you clear out my gutters?

Only around the joints we seal because the joint must be clean. Cleaning the whole run is a separate job.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Just list everything you need.

What gutter sealing looks like in Peebles

Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex. 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.

In the older streets around Peebles Old Parish Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
