How we handle gutter sealing in Thrumster
Gaps along uPVC fascias and soffits look untidy and can let in water and draughts. They’re sealed in a matching colour where one is available. If you have water dripping where gutter sections meet and old sealant on roofline trims that has split, we can help, on soffit joints, gutter end caps and garage door frames alike.
In and around a place like Thrumster, many buildings face open ground and take the full weather. Gutter joints and wall joints take a battering.

Why act early in Thrumster
Sealing over a dirty, wet joint is a quick fix that rarely lasts but it tends to peel off. Cleaning out and drying the joint first is what makes it last. 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.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why Thrumster customers choose us
- A choice of colours where the product allows

Gutter joints
A dripping joint doesn’t always mean a failed gutter. Resealing is usually enough.
Roofline trims
We reseal trim joints with an exterior sealant.
Gutter sealing in Thrumster: local notes
Thrumster is within about 1 mile of the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. That’s hard on gutter, fascia and roofline joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
In and around Thrumster, as anywhere, good gutter sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Thrumster is about 20 miles south-east of Thurso, in Highland. Our applicators cover gutter sealing for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Thrumster and the surrounding area, as part of our work across Highland. We cover 253 towns and villages across Highland, large and small.

Thrumster: your questions answered
Will you come out to Thrumster?
Yes, Thrumster is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Wick station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The product needed can limit the range.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Is gutter cleaning part of the job?
We clear what’s around the joints we work on. A full clean of the gutters is not part of it.
How long does gutter sealing take?
A typical job takes anything from an hour or two to a few hours. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Signs you need gutter sealing in Thrumster
Gutter joints depend on seals that wear out. Temperature changes make gutters move and that movement opens up tired joints.
Look out for any of the following:
- Streaks down the brickwork from a leaking joint
- Leaking gutter joints and stop ends
- Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
- Failed sealant on a garage door frame
Letting a property close to Wick station? Then a dripping gutter joint or loose fascia trim is easy to miss until damp shows inside.
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How long the guarantee is
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Brackets that have snapped or loosened
- Water backing up from a blocked pipe
- Fascias that need 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.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on the number of joints and the access, and the area is left clean. Around Thrumster, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- We start by tracing the leak and checking the gutter itself is sound.
- Old sealant and dirt are removed from the joint.
- The joint is dried, because sealant will not bond to a wet surface.
- Gutter or exterior sealant is applied and finished.
- We look along the gutter and clear debris around the joints.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not lean ladders against the gutter itself
- Watch for drips in a downpour
- Sort out a dripping joint early
- Don’t leave a sagging gutter
Keep the gutters clear of leaves and moss, so water drains away past the joints. Water left in a gutter tests every joint.
A leaking garage frame lets water reach stored items. A reseal sorts it.
