How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours from start to finish. Outside jobs in Scottish Borders need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- 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.
- We dry the joint so the new sealant can bond.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any parking rules near the property

How we handle gutter sealing in Scottish Borders
For gutter sealant to hold, the joint has to be clean and dry. So the old sealant and grime come out first, then dry the joint before sealing. If you’re dealing with internal damp traced to a gutter joint and rain getting in around a garage door, we can help, on gutter end caps, uPVC fascias and gutter joints alike.
In and around a place like Scottish Borders, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering, so they need a sealant that moves with the building.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Outside joints around Scottish Borders
Scottish Borders is within about 2 miles of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
In and around Scottish Borders, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What we are called out for in Scottish Borders
Overflowing gutters can look like leaking joints. If the downpipe is blocked, water has nowhere to go so we check the cause first.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Stop ends leaking at the end of a run
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Failed sealant on a garage door frame
If you let a flat or house near Reston station, a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
What your quote should include
- What product goes in the joint
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What the cure time is
Different surfaces, different methods
Garage door frames
The joint between frame and brickwork moves and weathers. An exterior sealant suits them.
Gutter joints
When a joint drips, the gutter is often still sound. Resealing is usually enough.

Scottish Borders: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Reston station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Does living near the coast affect gutter sealing in Scottish Borders?
Near the coast, wind-driven rain and, nearer the shore, salt air make outside sealant work harder. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
How long does gutter sealing take?
A typical job takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Is the work guaranteed?
You get our 12-month guarantee to all our work.
Do you come to Scottish Borders?
Yes, we do. Scottish Borders is part of the area we cover, and the service is the same as everywhere else.

Why act early in Scottish Borders
Replacing fascias because of open joints is normally unnecessary. Sealing the joints tidies them up as long as the boards are in good condition. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep ladders off the guttering
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Look along the fascias for open joints
Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss, so water drains away past the joints. Standing water strains every seal.
Early sealing limits how much water hits the wall. If we find a bigger problem, we’ll tell you.
