About our gutter sealing in Rafford
Open fascia and soffit joints spoil the roofline and can let weather in. We seal them in a colour to suit where possible. We’re often asked to deal with earlier gutter repairs that have peeled off and dripping gutter ends, across gutter joints, garage door frames and roofline trims.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Rafford depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Tell us how to reach each wall, gutter and roofline.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Rafford questions
Can you do gutter sealing in Rafford?
Yes, Rafford is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Rafford within the area you cover?
Yes, Rafford is covered. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do you clean gutters?
We clear what’s around the joints we work on. Full gutter cleaning is a separate job.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Not for long. The joint will pull apart so the gutter has to be refixed first.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
The process
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work generally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Outside jobs in Rafford need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We look at where the water is coming from and check the gutter isn’t broken or sagging.
- We clean out the joint and take out the old sealant.
- We make sure the joint is dry before sealing.
- An exterior or gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
- We check the run and clear any debris we find while we are there.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice
Walls and rooflines in Rafford
Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. With historic houses such as Logie House (about 4.7 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Rafford as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth.
Letting a property close to Forres station? Then a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Forres Academy, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Deal with a drip before winter
- Make sure downpipes aren’t blocked
Look at fascia and trim joints when you are checking the gutters. Splits are easier to seal early.
Split sealant on fascias and trims lets water in behind. Sealing it early keeps the boards behind dry.
What we’re called out for in Rafford
Gutter joints depend on seals that wear out. Sun and cold make the gutter expand and contract and that movement opens up tired joints.
People usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Open joints in fascias and soffits
- Drips from gutter joints and end caps
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Rain getting in around a garage door
In the older streets around Old Parish Church and Burial Ground, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
What to look for in a quote

What affects the quote in Rafford
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The old material and how stubborn it is
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

What sealant work can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

- Sagging gutters or broken brackets
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Rafford
Letting agents and landlords in Rafford can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
