About our construction mastic in Birniehill
Site managers want applicators who turn up with the right cards and paperwork. We are a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and every applicator holds a CSCS card, and we are fully insured. RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details can be confirmed with the quote if you tell us what you need. If you’re dealing with snag items on joints that need redoing before handover and frame gaps too wide for sealant alone, we can help, on brick and block movement joints, cladding and panel joints and sanitary and kitchen joints alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Birniehill tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Sites near smaller places like Birniehill can mean longer travel, so the mastic is planned with as few trips as the job allows. Send drawings, photos and the programme so everything needed arrives on the first day.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What sealant work can’t fix
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Damage to finishes by other trades after we’ve sealed
- Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Brick and block movement joints

What affects the price in Birniehill
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- How much there is to seal
- The product specified
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Any specification or named product
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Why deal with it now?
Sealing over damaged or contaminated new joints might save a day, but it won’t last. Sealant can’t grip a contaminated or existing bead and the defect reappears in the defects period. We cut out and redo the joint properly. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Why us?
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
- Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
- A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
- Colours confirmed for the specified product

Do you cover Birniehill?
Yes. We cover Birniehill, and the simplest way to start is to ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
What we are called out for in Birniehill
Swapping the specified sealant for a cheaper general-purpose product is a common cause of failure. A sealant that isn’t right for the substrate or the movement will fail ahead of time. We stick to the specified product, or put any alternative to you first.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Snag items on joints that need redoing before handover
- Existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing
- New external sealant already peeling away
- Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
New units and refits on sites such as Scottish Enterprise Technology Park (Birniehill), less than half a mile to the south-west of Birniehill, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.
What your quote should include
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- The named product and why it was chosen
