Surface by surface
Gutter joints
Gutter joints move and sit in water. A dedicated gutter sealant suits them.
uPVC fascias
We seal fascia joints, not replace the boards. Damaged boards need replacing by an installer.
Gutter sealing in Plocrapool, done properly
Water dripping from a gutter joint can stain walls and soak the ground below. Often a reseal is enough, as long as the gutter is sound. If you have failed sealant on a garage door frame and trim joints where the sealant has failed, we can help, whatever the surface.
In and around a place like Plocrapool, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard, so they need a sealant that moves with the building.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes an hour or two for a few joints, longer for a full run. Somewhere like Plocrapool may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We find where the water is coming from and check the gutter is sound.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- The joint is dried before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Quotes for gutter sealing in Plocrapool
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs
- Access and height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Guttering that needs replacing
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
- Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common problems we fix in Plocrapool
Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Sun and cold make the gutter expand and contract, and old seals crack or slip.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Gaps along fascia and soffit joints
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
For jobs in and around Plocrapool, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What insurance they hold
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
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.
Plocrapool buildings and the weather
Plocrapool is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That is hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface.
In and around Plocrapool, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Rest ladders on the wall, not the gutter
- Check fascia and soffit joints for gaps
- Keep the gutters clear of debris
- Watch for drips in a downpour
While checking gutters, glance at the fascia joints too. A small split is quicker to put right.
If an end cap is dripping, deal with it before winter. A winter of drips can lead to damp patches inside.

We do. Our work is the joints, and if a board is damaged, we will tell you.
