Walls and rooflines in Roslin

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. Historic houses like Melville Castle (about 3.4 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Roslin has older buildings as well as new. Where a home is older, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.

Historic houses such as Melville Castle, about 3.4 miles north-east, show how far back building around Roslin goes. Rented homes near Eskbank station change hands often, and a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.

About our gutter sealing in Roslin

We do not replace gutters, fascias or roofs. What sealant does is close joints; it won’t fix a broken bracket, a cracked section or a blocked downpipe. If you have dripping gutter ends and old sealant on roofline trims that has split, we can help.

Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Roslin depends on the weather, and longer journeys are planned in advance. Let us know about access to every wall and roofline.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Roslin

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Eskbank station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Is Roslin within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.

Should I try DIY first?

You can, for simple jobs. 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.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Do you clean gutters?

The joints we seal are cleaned out and clear debris we find nearby. Cleaning the whole run is a different job.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.

Are you fully insured?

Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Boards that have decayed or split
  • Sagging gutters or broken brackets
  • Guttering that needs replacing

If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

How to look after the new joints

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
  • Watch the wall under the gutters for staining
  • Keep downpipes clear
  • Clean out the gutters once or twice a year

Clear the gutters once or twice a year so water doesn’t sit on the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.

Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. We will let you know if the gutter needs more than sealant.

What we do, step by step

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Around Roslin, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. First we trace the drip and check the gutter is not damaged.
  2. We remove the old sealant and clean the joint.
  3. We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
  4. A gutter sealant is applied to the joint.
  5. We check the run and clear debris near the joints.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Tell us about any water getting in

Why it’s worth doing now in Roslin

If the problem is a blocked downpipe, sealing will not help. We look at what’s really happening and point you to the right trade if needed. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

Surface by surface

Roofline trims

We seal the trims, not the roof. A roofer deals with the roof itself.

uPVC fascias

Our work is the joints, not new fascias. If boards are damaged, we will tell you.

Should I try it myself first?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

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

Do you need gutter sealing in Roslin?

Leaves and moss hold water in the gutter. Water that cannot drain works its way through a weak joint and drips through.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Quick sealant fixes on gutters that didn’t last
  • Garage door frames letting rain in
  • Fascia boards with gaps between them
  • Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter

If you look after a building such as Lasswade High School Centre, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
