- Roof leaks that only look like a joint problem
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- External facade joints
- Floor and threshold joints

- Window and door perimeters
- Washrooms and tea points
Commercial mastic work in Liberton
Most of the buildings we seal stay open while we’re there. 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. Site teams most often ask us about window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open and water staining near frames, panels or ceilings, on kitchen worktops and splashbacks, floor and threshold joints and external facade joints. Whoever orders the work in Liberton, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
A lot of what we do in Liberton is replacing sealant that has done its years: split, chalky or peeling, with leaks or mould starting behind it.
Working in a Scottish city means planning around loading rules, shared entrances and busy pavements. Give us your access times and any building rules and we will fit the work around them, phased so offices and shops keep trading.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: 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.

Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Note dates and locations of sealant work for future planning
- Keep barriers up until the new sealant has cured
- Brief cleaning contractors to avoid scourers and blades on sealant
- Look at the sealant around anything that has been moved or replaced
Keep an eye out for other trades after we’ve gone. When fittings are moved or cabling added, the sealant nearby is easily disturbed, and it’s easy to forget to reseal afterwards. If that happens, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will price putting it right.
A failed external joint lets water in every time it rains. It can run into cavities, insulation and internal finishes long before anyone sees a stain. Resealing early keeps the problem in the sealant and out of the building.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Liberton
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Why deal with it now?
A cheaper quote sometimes means the old bead stays in. Sealing over looks tidy at handover, then lifts once the joint starts moving. Our prices always include removal of the failed bead and full joint preparation, which is where the lasting value is. In Liberton, as across Scotland, rain finds any gap, so a split or hardened joint lets water into the wall. Renewing them early protects the fabric.
Pricing sealant joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Call for a quote.

Can you work at a site such as Blackford Business Park, by Liberton?

Can you supply sealant in our brand colour for a site in Liberton?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?
Yes. A large share of our work comes through facilities managers, managing agents and landlords, alongside main contractors. Tell us how you issue work and we will fit in.
How soon can the area be used again?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Does commercial sealant work come with a guarantee?
The work is guaranteed for 12 months. Should a joint we sealed give trouble during those 12 months, let us know and we will look at it.
What site paperwork can you provide?
We confirm documents at quote stage: most clients ask for RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details. Our applicators are CSCS-carded.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Cost factors for sealant joints
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The product specified
- Any access equipment needed
- Location, for remote and island sites
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- The product your specification calls for
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
