Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
General trades versus a specialist
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. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Construction mastic in Camore
Site managers want applicators who turn up with the right cards and paperwork. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance in place. RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details can be confirmed with the quote if you tell us what you need. We work on floor and skirting junctions, brick and block movement joints and window and door perimeters, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed and caulk cracking where joints are moving more than expected. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Camore? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

What else we do in Camore
After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Protect sealed areas from following trades
- Use the product the specification names
- Note which sealant went where at handover
- Flag uneven or tapered frame gaps early
Our 12-month guarantee covers the workmanship from sign-off. Damage by others isn’t a workmanship fault which is why protection after sealing matters.
Sanitary joints that fail early become defects soon after occupation. Water gets behind trays, vanity tops and panels, and the repair falls into the defects period. Getting the product and preparation right first time avoids that.
Common problems we fix in Camore
Wide, tapered or inconsistent gaps around frames are a common problem. Sealant has a range of joint widths it can cope with and gaps beyond it need packing or adjusting by the frame installer. Better to raise it at the start than seal a joint that’s bound to fail.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant alone
Work at a hotel such as The Eagle Hotel, 1.1 miles east of Camore, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.

Our process
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. For a building near Camore, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
- We take off quantities and return a fixed quote.
- The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
- Plots or floors are sealed as they’re handed over.
- Joints are prepared, backed and sealed to the specification.
- Snags are cleared and the package signed off with our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Let us know about inductions and permits

What we can’t put right
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Glazing units that are cracked or misted
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
- Fire-stopping design or sign-off (that’s for the designer, fire engineer and building control)
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Cladding and panel joints
- Brick and block movement joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Window and door perimeters
- Internal decorators’ caulk
Why deal with it now?
Sealing over damaged or contaminated new joints might save a day. New sealant laid on old or dirty sealant has nothing to bond to. Damaged joints are removed and resealed from clean faces. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Camore. Send photos and we will quote for everything together.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

Questions about Camore
Does the sea air around Camore change the choice of sealant?
It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Is Camore off your patch?
No. Places such as Camore are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Does weather affect external mastic work?
Outside, the joint has to be dry and the temperature within the product’s limits. Frosty or damp mornings can hold up external sealing.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
In the majority of cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Can fire-rated sealing at service penetrations be included?
We install fire-rated sealant where it is the specified product. We will flag if the detail needs a different product.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Building and refurbishing in Camore
Camore is within about 1 mile of the coast. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Camore. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
For contractors at a school such as Dornoch Academy, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
