How construction mastic works in Angus
Site managers want applicators who turn up with the right cards and paperwork. We’re a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and every applicator holds a CSCS card. RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details can be confirmed with the quote if you tell us what you need. We work on brick and block movement joints, cladding and panel joints and internal decorators’ caulk, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are snag items on joints that need redoing before handover and new external sealant already peeling away.
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- You receive a fixed quote listing scope, products and phasing.
- Any site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) is confirmed with the quote.
- Work follows the programme, area by area, as rooms and elevations become ready.
- Joints are cleaned, primed where the maker requires it, backed and sealed to the specification.
- Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.
What affects the price in Angus
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

What’s near Arbroath
We work on buildings around Arbroath High School, Knox's Church and The Corn Exchange pub, among other places. There’s a railway station in Arbroath itself: Arbroath station. Well-known places in the area include Arbroath Signal Tower Museum (0.6 miles south) and Arbroath Infirmary (0.6 miles south).
Sites and facades across Angus
Our CSCS-carded applicators work on sites across Angus, from Arbroath, Forfar and Montrose to smaller schemes. Send drawings, the programme and your paperwork requirements, and we will confirm everything with the quote.
In Scotland, managing agents for tenements are often called property factors, so mastic work on shared parts may come through the factor. Angus includes coastal places, where facades, frames and external slabs take more weather than inland. We take that exposure into account when choosing the product.
Arbroath: New wings at hospitals like Arbroath Infirmary, 0.6 miles to the south of Arbroath, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Royal Hotel (0.5 miles south-east of Arbroath), normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
Owners, agents and contractors
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Looking after the joints
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Record the products used in the O&M file
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
- Put any product change through the designer first
Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Scrapers used on frames and worktops can nick or lift a new bead, so stick to soft cloths and gentle cleaners near sealant.
Sealing outside when the joint is damp or too cold leads to poor adhesion. Waiting for a dry joint and the right temperature is better than redoing work.
Honest limits
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Damage to finishes by other trades after we’ve sealed
- Oversized gaps that need packing or adjustment by others
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
Cost factors for mastic packages
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How much existing material needs removing
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Phasing around occupants
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
What to include in your enquiry
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- Your programme or deadline
- The postcode of the building
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Any specification or named product

What we’re called out for in Angus
A new building moves while it dries and settles. Materials lose construction moisture and shrink, which opens up internal joints, particularly where caulk has been used in a joint that moves. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
- Snag items on joints that need redoing before handover
- Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
Common questions from Angus clients
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Normally, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Is any job too small?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
When can you be on site?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.
