The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. For a job in Shieldhall, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- We remove the old sealant and clean 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Gutter sealing in Shieldhall, done properly
A leaking gutter joint marks the wall and wets the ground underneath. Often a reseal is enough, as long as the gutter is sound. Typical jobs include trim joints where the sealant has failed and damp patches inside below a leaking gutter, across gutter joints, gutter end caps and uPVC fascias.
Scotland’s cities also have plenty of modern blocks with rendered or clad walls and sealed movement joints. In Shieldhall, those joints dry out over time and let water in behind the render or cladding.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

How the job changes by surface
Garage door frames
Failed sealant around a garage door frame lets water in. We cut it out and reseal.
Soffit joints
Open soffit joints let draughts in. We close them with a suitable sealant.
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check that water runs out of the downpipes
- Look for streaks or damp on the wall below gutters
- Clear leaves and moss from the gutters
- Check the gutters during heavy rain
Clear the gutters once or twice a year, so water drains away past the joints. Standing water strains every seal.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. A reseal sorts it.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

I let a flat near Hillington West station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Is it possible to stop a gutter joint dripping with sealant?
Usually, if the gutter is sound. The joint is cleaned and dried first so the seal holds.
Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?
Not for long. The joint will pull apart, so the fall and brackets need sorting first.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
