Why deal with it now?
A cheaper sealant can look like an easy saving on a large package. A failed joint in the defects period costs far more than the product difference and external joints are where it shows first. We price the specified product and will tell you plainly where an alternative would or wouldn’t work. For buildings near Borestone, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photos and we will quote for everything together.
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Construction mastic in Borestone
External mastic depends on the weather in a way most internal trades don’t. Each sealant has a temperature range, and damp, frost or condensation on frames stops work so it helps to sequence elevations with some flexibility. Internal areas can normally carry on while the outside waits. If you are dealing with missed perimeter joints on a new elevation and cracks opening in caulked internal joints, we can help. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Borestone first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
For a site around Borestone, we plan the mastic in as few trips as the programme allows. Clear drawings, a programme and photos let us bring the right sealants, primers and backing rod first time.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Surface by surface
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
In bathrooms and washrooms, an anti-mould sanitary silicone goes around every fitting. Each joint is prepared, sealed and finished with a neat tooled line and baths are loaded where appropriate before sealing.
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Where the specification calls for fire-rated or intumescent sealant around service penetrations or linear gaps, we install it to the manufacturer’s tested detail. The design and sign-off of fire stopping sit with the designer, principal designer or fire engineer and we install what’s specified.
Questions about Borestone
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Stirling?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we’ll plan the work around them. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Would you work within a site like BMI Kings Park Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is the mastic package guaranteed?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee, covering how we sealed. Keeping other trades off finished joints prevents most problems.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes whatever the programme allows, since the work follows the trades as areas are released. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Will you quote for a small job?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Can you work to our specification?
Specification first, then the maker’s instructions. Primers, backing and joint depth follow what the manufacturer sets out.
How much does the work cost?
It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.
How a job runs
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use.

What else we do in Borestone
Construction mastic around Borestone: what changes locally
Scotland has its own building regulations, and in Borestone warrants come from the local authority verifier. Our job is to seal to that specification. The east of Scotland, where Borestone is, gets less rain than the west. Frosty spells still affect external mastic dates. External mastic is planned with the site manager for workable conditions.
Units on estates such as Laurelhill Business Park (to the north of Borestone) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal. On a campus such as University of Stirling, 4.6 miles north of Borestone, new teaching buildings and residences are typically built and refurbished around the academic year. On a healthcare site such as BMI Kings Park Hospital, 2 miles to the north of Borestone, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.

When to bring in a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. 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.
What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly before you book.
