What we’re called out for in Gourdon
Most mastic snags on new buildings come from sequencing rather than product. If sealant goes in before the last trades are through, it gets knocked, painted over or contaminated.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Missed perimeter joints on a new elevation
- Inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot
- Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
- Snag items on joints that need redoing before handover
When units on a site such as Linton Business Park, less than half a mile north of Gourdon, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.
Before you book anyone
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Construction mastic in Gourdon
Perimeter sealing outside needs a dry joint and the right temperature. 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 sealing often fills those days. The enquiries we see most involve new external sealant already peeling away and a mastic package split between trades with no clear owner, on brick and block movement joints, sanitary and kitchen joints and window and door perimeters. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Gourdon from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
For a site around Gourdon, 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.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

From enquiry to sign-off
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Gourdon is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- Drawings, the sealant specification and your programme come to us for pricing.
- You receive a fixed quote listing scope, products and phasing.
- You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
- Work follows the programme, area by area, as rooms and elevations become ready.
- Every joint is prepared, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
Getting a fixed quote
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Related advice
Keeping the joints sound
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Brief the final clean team to avoid blades near sealant
- Use the product the specification names
- Protect sealed areas from following trades
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
Tell the builders’ clean team which areas have new sealant. Blades and abrasive pads are the commonest cause of damage at the final clean so keep them off the joints.
External joints sealed in poor weather are a common cause of early failure. Waiting for a dry joint and the right temperature is better than redoing work, so we plan external work with that in mind.
What sealant work can’t fix
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
- Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Brick and block movement joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding and panel joints
- Internal decorators’ caulk
For managing agents and facilities managers
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Gourdon can form part of a wider programme.
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Mastic packages on Gourdon sites
Gourdon sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. Building work in Gourdon comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004 and their technical handbooks, with warrants from the local authority verifier. We seal to the specification that sits behind the warrant.
Hotels like Salutation Hotel (1.1 miles north of Gourdon) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.

How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Phasing around occupants
- Location, for remote and island sites

Your questions answered
Is Gourdon off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Is Linton Business Park, near Gourdon, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Gourdon, Linton Business Park among them, are all within reach. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you fit around our programme?
We work to your programme. Share the release dates and we will match our work to them, sealing as areas become ready.
Do you do internal caulk as well as external mastic?
External and internal frame perimeters, caulking where it’s specified, sanitary silicone, kitchen joints and snagging before handover. The scope follows your specification.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
How do you choose the sealant?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
