Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
How the quote is worked out
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Phasing around occupants
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Travel to remote or island sites
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Before you send an enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Any specification or named product
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings to discuss it first.
About our construction mastic in Clachan of Campsie
Mastic is often where a new building first shows its quality to the client. A smeared bead round a window or a gap behind a worktop ends up on the snag list and clearing them late eats into the handover window. Our aim is joints that pass at the first inspection, whatever the size of the scheme. Most enquiries involve missed perimeter joints on a new elevation and snag items on joints that need redoing before handover, on window and door perimeters, sanitary and kitchen joints and cladding and panel joints. Most enquiries from Clachan of Campsie start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Sites near smaller places like Clachan of Campsie can mean longer travel, so the mastic is planned with as few trips as the job allows. Send drawings, photographs and the programme so everything needed arrives on the first day.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

When to bring in a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.

Common questions from Clachan of Campsie clients
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Broomhill 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.
Can you keep pace with our programme in Clachan of Campsie?
Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
How do you choose the sealant?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do you do fire-rated sealing on new builds?
Where the specification calls for fire-rated or intumescent sealant around service penetrations or linear gaps, we install it to the manufacturer’s tested details. Fire-stopping design and sign-off sit with the designer and building control.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
We use the product the specification names. If we think an alternative would suit better, we put it to you first.
When to call us in Clachan of Campsie
On construction sites, joints usually fail early because of when they were sealed, not what was used. If sealant goes in before the last trades are through, it gets knocked, painted over or contaminated, and the joint has to be redone.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
- Early adhesion failures on new external joints
- Oversized or tapered gaps around new frames
- Frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed
Extensions at sites like Broomhill Hospital, 4.1 miles south-east of Clachan of Campsie, usually sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.
What to look for in a quote
- How they’ll work around occupants
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
When something else is needed
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Fire-stopping design or sign-off (that’s for the designer, fire engineer and building control)
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will say what we think before you book.
