  • Blocked downpipes
  • Leaks from the roof rather than a joint
  • Boards that have decayed or split

Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

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

How we handle gutter sealing in Tillietudlem

Sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. That’s why we take out the old sealant and dirt first, then dry the joint before sealing. We work on roofline trims, gutter end caps and soffit joints, and people most often call us about damp patches inside below a leaking gutter and leaking gutter joints and stop ends.

Stone walls need a stone-friendly sealant, as acetoxy products can attack some stone. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Questions from Tillietudlem

Is Tillietudlem within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. 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 Tillietudlem in your area for gutter sealing?

Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Tillietudlem is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Will you leave a mess?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.

Can sealant stop a sagging gutter leaking?

Sealing a sagging joint won’t last. The gutter needs refixing by a gutter installer.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Are you insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

How to look after the new joints

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Check the gutters during heavy rain
  • Keep the gutters clear of debris
  • Sort out a dripping joint early
  • Look along the fascias for open joints

Leave the new sealant to cure as we advise before poking or cleaning near it.

Once roofline sealant splits, water can get behind it. Resealing early protects the boards and the wall below.

How we quote for gutter sealing

You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • The size of the job
  • Which sealant suits the joint

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What we need to know

You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • A few photos by email, if you can

We don’t publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

When to call us in Tillietudlem

Gutter joints depend on seals that wear out. Sun and cold make the gutter expand and contract, and old seals crack or slip.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Open joints in fascias and soffits
  • Dripping gutter ends
  • Internal damp traced to a gutter joint
  • Water running down the wall below the gutter

Rented homes near Carluke station change hands often, and a gutter joint that drips onto the wall can turn into a damp complaint, so it’s worth checking.

Choosing a sealant specialist

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Walls and rooflines in Tillietudlem

Historic houses like Cambusnethan House (about 4.9 miles north-west) are a reminder that the area around Tillietudlem has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. 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.

For an older house near a landmark such as Crossford Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

  3. The joints are dried.
  4. We apply exterior or gutter sealant and finish it neatly.
