About our gutter sealing in Plantation

A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Often a reseal is enough if the gutter is not damaged. We work on gutter joints, garage door frames and gutter end caps, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking gutter joints and stop ends and internal damp traced to a gutter joint.

Alongside their tenements, Scotland’s cities have modern blocks with render, cladding and movement joints. Around Plantation, as anywhere, those joints dry out and crack over time, letting water behind the face of the building.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What happens on the day

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, depending on the size of the job. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. In Plantation, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.

  1. First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
  2. The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
  3. The joint is dried before sealing.
  4. We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
  5. The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice

Different surfaces, different methods

Soffit joints

Soffit joints are sealed in a colour to suit.

Gutter joints

A gutter joint has to cope with movement and standing water. A gutter sealant made for the job holds best.

What gutter sealing looks like in Plantation

Historic houses like Tenement House (about 1.1 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Plantation has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface.

Rented homes near Exhibition Centre station change hands often, and leaking gutter joints on a rental are best caught before they stain the walls. Tenement House, about 1.1 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Plantation.

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Keep downpipes clear
  • Glance at the soffit joints now and then
  • Keep an eye out for wet patches below a joint
  • Have sagging gutters refixed early

Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.

Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry and the wall below.

What we’re called out for in Plantation

A sealant applied to a damp or dirty joint will not bond. Rushed repairs often don’t last long for this reason.

The problems people usually mention when they call are:

  • Open joints in fascias and soffits
  • Old sealant on roofline trims that has split
  • Failed sealant on a garage door frame
  • Damp patches inside below a leaking gutter

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

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What product goes in the joint
  • What preparation is included

  • Problems with the roof covering
  • Brackets that have snapped or loosened

Plantation questions

Who arranges sealant work on the shared parts of a tenement in Plantation?

Most tenements arrange shared repairs through the owners or a property factor. The Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 sets the rules for common parts if the deeds do not.

I let a flat near Exhibition Centre station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you replace gutters or fascias?

No. Our work is sealing joints; replacing gutters and fascias needs a gutter or roofline installer.

Is it worth trying it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Is it messy?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Is sealing fascia joints something you do?

Yes, often alongside gutter joints. The gaps are cleaned and sealed neatly with a suitable exterior sealant.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
