Commercial mastic work in Craigo
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. It’s the same approach in offices, retail units, hotels, schools and healthcare buildings. If you have movement joints packed with grit and debris and sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy, we can put it right. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Craigo from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
A lot of what we do in Craigo is replacing sealant that has done its years: hardened, cracked or shrunk away from the faces, and letting water or dirt in.
Travel to smaller places such as Craigo is planned so the whole job is finished in one visit where possible: send photographs and a complete list so the right products and colours come on the day. Several jobs nearby can also be put together.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For a building near Craigo, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- You send photographs, drawings or a list of the joints and areas involved, or we arrange a site visit.
- Next comes a diagnosis and a fixed quote.
- We plan around your site hours and access windows, phasing the work where areas have to stay in use.
- Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
- Backing and primer go in where needed, then the chosen sealant is applied and tooled.
- Finished joints are checked with you and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

Why act early in Craigo
Some managers wait for a fit-out before touching the mastic. For internal joints that are only cosmetic, that can make sense, but external and wet-area joints that already leak shouldn’t wait. Splitting the scope into now and later is often the sensible compromise. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Craigo. Send photos and we’ll quote for everything together.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Frontages, fit-outs and joints in Craigo
Craigo is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Winter frost and damp frames still stop outside sealing on some days. Outside work is booked with that in mind
Offices and shops close to stations such as Montrose station, 4.2 miles to the south of Craigo, tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours.
Craigo is about 4 miles north-west of Montrose, in Angus. Across the DD10 postcode area, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. 65 places across Angus fall within our area, including Craigo. There’s a separate page for Dundee, roughly 27 miles from Craigo.
Work on sealant joints is covered throughout DD10. Close to Craigo, our area also takes in Marykirk (1 mile north), Hillside (2 miles south-east), Luthermuir (3 miles north-west), St Cyrus (4 miles east) and Sauchieburn (4 miles north-west). A short drive away, we cover Arbroath (15 miles south), Brechin (6 miles south-west), Letham (14 miles south-west), Edzell (6 miles north-west), Ferryden (5 miles south) and Friockheim (11 miles south-west).
Around Craigo
The nearest railway station is Montrose station, roughly 4.2 miles south of the centre. Nearby you will also find Stracathro Hospital (4 miles west) and Inglismaldie Castle (3.2 miles north-west). For a walk, there’s Duns Dish and St Cyrus National Nature Reserve.
Maintenance after handover
After handover, these steps help:
- Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
- Report cracked or peeling sealant early
- Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
- Make sure ventilation in wet areas is switched on and working
Brief your cleaning team on the joints that have been resealed. Scourers, blades and harsh products shorten a bead’s life, while a neutral cleaner and a soft cloth do no harm.
Movement joints that fill with debris stop working. The joint can no longer close, so its edges crack or spall. At that point it’s a repair job rather than a reseal.
When to call us in Craigo
When a bead peels cleanly off one face, it has failed in adhesion. Typical reasons include rushed preparation, no primer where one was needed, dust or release agents on the surface, or three-sided adhesion. It’s one of the commonest faults we find on earlier work.
Look out for the following:
- Weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes
- Expansion joints with the sealant torn out
- Leaks that seem to come through a sealant line
- Frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away
For a hotel such as Marykirik Hotel, 0.8 miles to the north of Craigo, the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.

Questions about Craigo
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Craigo?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. We hold £5m public liability insurance, are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators are CSCS-carded.
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Craigo?
Yes, sealants come in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references, cladding, stone or frames is a common request. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
How long before the joints can be used?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day.
Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?
It’s possible in older buildings, especially those built before 2000. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before disturbing old sealant, and anything suspect is left until it has been tested.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Does commercial sealant work come with a guarantee?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. Should anything we did fail within that period, let us know.
What the job involves on each surface
Washrooms and toilets
Around WCs, urinals, vanity tops, IPS panels and cubicles, sealant is wet most of the day. We cut out mouldy or split beads and reseal in anti-mould sanitary silicone, with phased work so some facilities stay open.
Movement joints in walls and floors
Brickwork, blockwork and floor slabs all have movement joints that need a flexible seal. When the seal fails, debris gets in and the joint stops working. The new sealant is chosen for the movement and, on floors, the traffic.

Cost factors for sealant joints
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- The product specified
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
What we need to price the job
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Specification clauses that apply
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
