- Rain getting in around a garage door
- Wet patches on the wall under a gutter joint
- Damp on an inside wall under a dripping gutter
The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access, including the tidy-up. Outside jobs in Tarves need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we trace the drip and check the gutter isn’t damaged.
- The old sealant and dirt are cleaned out of the joint.
- The joint is dried before sealing.
- We seal the joint with a sealant made for gutters.
- The gutter is checked and debris around the joints cleared.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

How we handle gutter sealing in Tarves
We work across Tarves on leaking gutter joints and roofline trims. Low-level work is straightforward, and for higher work, tell us about access and we’ll confirm what’s needed. We work on roofline trims, soffit joints and gutter joints, and the jobs we see most are garage door frames letting rain in and old gutter sealant that has let go.
Older stone buildings need a sealant that suits the stone, not an acetoxy product that can mark or attack it. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

FAQs for Tarves
Do you cover smaller places like Tarves?
Yes, Tarves is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is gutter sealing in Tarves guaranteed?
All our work, in Tarves and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels across Aberdeenshire.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Tarves.
Can you fit new guttering?
We do not replace gutters or fascias. If a gutter is broken or sagging, we’ll tell you so you can call the right trade.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Leave it or put it right?
Replacing guttering is a much bigger job than sealing joints. Where the gutter is in good order and only a joint leaks, resealing is the sensible fix. If it has failed, we will tell you. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

When it isn’t the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Cracked, split or warped gutter sections
- Downpipes that are blocked or broken
- Sagging gutters or broken brackets
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Look at the gutters while it’s raining
- Clean out the gutters once or twice a year
- Get leaks sealed before the wet months
- Get a dropping gutter looked at quickly
If a gutter starts to sag, get the brackets looked at. If it drops, the joints will open.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. Resealing the frame is a quick job.
Do you need gutter sealing in Tarves?

Gutter sealing in Tarves: local notes
Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
For an older house near a landmark such as Tarves Parish Church, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
