Diagnose, treat, sign off
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking part of a day on a small job and longer where several buildings or phases are involved. Jobs near Newton of Falkland are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- We start with the evidence: photos, drawings or a look on site.
- A fixed quote follows, with removal and preparation included.
- Sequence, access and working times are settled before the first joint is touched.
- Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
- Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.

Advice
Doing it in-house
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Maintenance after handover
For the best life from the joints:
- Keep barriers up until the new sealant has cured
- Put external and wet-area joints on a regular inspection round
- Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
- Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
Give fresh sealant time to cure before it’s cleaned, wetted or walked past. Cure time varies with the product, conditions and depth of the joint, and we confirm it when each area is handed back. Leaving the area closed until then keeps the bead neat.
Sealant installed at the same time usually fails in sequence. The first failures are often a warning about the rest, so it makes sense to look at the wider elevation or block. We can assess the lot and suggest what to do now and later.
When to call us in Newton of Falkland
Plenty of failed joints were never sealed with the right product. Decorators’ caulk on a joint that moves, acetoxy silicone on stone or metal, or a stiff sealant on a facade all let go sooner than they should. Guidance such as BS 6213 exists to steer sealant selection for exactly this reason, and many specifications refer to it.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead
- Window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open
- Greasy, split joints in a kitchen or tea point
- Smeared sealant across finishes from a rushed job

What happens if it’s left?
Before budgeting for new frames, cubicles or worktops, check whether it’s just the sealant. Often the fitting is sound and the joint is the only thing letting it down. A careful reseal is a far smaller undertaking than replacement. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
