Sealant applicators in Coupar Angus

Commercial sealant contractors in Coupar Angus

Commercial occupiers rarely want a floor out of action for sealant work. Work is scheduled around the site hours and access windows you give us; phased work can also be planned so areas stay in use. That applies whether the building is an office, a shop, a hotel, a college or a care home. Most enquiries involve frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall and sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy, across kitchen worktops and splashbacks, movement joints in walls and floors and window and door perimeters. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Coupar Angus? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

In Coupar Angus, as anywhere, the first joints to go are typically the ones that work hardest: south-facing perimeters, entrance thresholds and busy washrooms.

Around smaller places such as Coupar Angus, the commercial buildings tend to be hospitality, local shops, schools, health centres and converted rural buildings. Each has kitchens, washrooms and frames that depend on sound joints.

Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Do you need commercial sealant contractors in Coupar Angus?

Outside, sunlight and rain wear sealant down year after year. Sunny elevations dry the surface out and exposed ones take driving rain, so beads chalk, stiffen and lose their stretch. A hardened bead can’t follow the building any more.

What tends to prompt an enquiry:

• Leaks that seem to come through a sealant line
• Black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off
• Shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks
• Messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down

For a hotel such as Royal Hotel, under half a mile to the south of Coupar Angus, the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.

Questions to ask before you book

• Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
• How the existing material will be dealt with
• Who will actually carry out the work
• How they’ll work around occupants

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Looking after the joints

To get the most from the new sealant:

• Don’t let cleaning or traffic back on before the cure time is up
• Report cracked or peeling sealant early
• Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
• Note dates and locations of sealant work for future planning

Let your cleaning contractor know what’s new. Abrasive pads, scrapers and some strong chemicals damage sealant surfaces; a mild cleaner is all most joints need.

Each spell of wet weather pushes more water through an open joint. Behind a panel or frame, that water can sit unseen for a long time. Resealing early keeps the problem in the sealant and out of the building.

What sealant work can’t fix

A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:

• Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
• Removing asbestos-containing materials (a licensed or specialist contractor’s job)
• Roof leaks that only look like a joint problem

If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
