Why act early in Port Elphinstone
New gutters cost far more than a few resealed joints. If the gutter is sound and the drip is a joint, resealing is the sensible fix. If it’s broken or sagging, a gutter installer needs to look. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

How we quote for gutter sealing
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Access and height
- The amount of work
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- Where the property is
- If someone has resealed it before
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- How we’d reach the joints
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access, including the tidy-up. For a place like Port Elphinstone, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- We check the run and clear debris near the joints.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Landlords, agents and businesses in Port Elphinstone
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

What we are called out for in Port Elphinstone
Gutter joints rely on seals that age. Sun and cold make the gutter expand and contract, and old seals crack or slip.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Trim joints where the sealant has failed
- Fascia boards with gaps between them
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off
Rented homes near Inverurie station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Yes, Port Elphinstone is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
What does gutter sealing cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
What do you need from me for a quote?

Gutter sealing in Port Elphinstone: local notes
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.
If you look after a building such as Inverurie Academy, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near St Mary's Episcopal Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.
