Why deal with it now?
Some managers wait for a fit-out before touching the mastic. That’s reasonable for internal joints that are just tired-looking, but external and wet-area joints that already leak shouldn’t wait. We can seal the urgent joints now and leave the rest for the programme. Around smaller places like Easter Pencaitland, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Commercial mastic work in Easter Pencaitland
We’ve applied sealant on commercial sites for over 20 years, and the paperwork side is in order: CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, five million pounds of public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators. Let us know which site documents you need and they’ll be confirmed with the quote. If you’re dealing with sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy and hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations, we can put it right, on movement joints in walls and floors, washrooms and tea points and external facade joints alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Easter Pencaitland it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Easter Pencaitland: sealant needs a dry joint and the right temperature, so external work has a weather window built in. Indoor work isn’t held up by rain.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

How the job changes by surface
Fire-rated seals where specified
Where the specification calls for fire-rated or intumescent sealant around service penetrations or linear gaps, we install it to the product’s tested detail. Fire-stopping design and sign-off sit with the designer, fire engineer or building control, and we install to the specification.
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.
How the quote is worked out
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- The product your specification calls for
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
What sealant work can’t fix
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Roof leaks that only look like a joint problem
- Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Washrooms and tea points
- External facade joints
- Floor and threshold joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Movement joints in walls and floors
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Your questions answered
Is Easter Pencaitland too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Does your area include sites such as Macmerry Industrial Estate, near Easter Pencaitland?
Yes, sites like Macmerry Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Easter Pencaitland. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is the old sealant taken out first?
Removal of the failed sealant is always part of the job. Laying new silicone on old gives it nothing to grip.
What site paperwork can you provide?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership and carry five million pounds of public liability insurance.
Can areas stay open during the work?
It’s normal for us to work in occupied buildings. Only the area being sealed is closed, and the sequence is agreed in advance, until its cure time has passed.
Can you handle sealant work across several sites?
Yes. We regularly take on multi-site work and planned maintenance programmes, priced site by site or as one programme.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
