Questions we are asked in Kelty
Is Kelty too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Would you work within a site like Queen Margaret Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
What do you charge?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with a description of the work.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Who decides which product is used?
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.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Our applicators hold CSCS cards, and we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. Public liability insurance of five million pounds is in place too.
How we handle construction mastic in Kelty
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 we plan elevations with the forecast and the programme in mind. Internal sealing often fills those days. If you have inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot and frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Kelty, the brief is usually the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Construction around smaller Scottish places like Kelty is often one-off schemes: a school, a health centre, a hotel extension or a few houses. Exposed elevations in Scotland put facade and perimeter joints to work from day one, so the sealant choice matters.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Kelty as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

What else we do in Kelty
Keeping the joints sound
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Flag uneven or tapered frame gaps early
- Keep product details for future maintenance
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
After we have sealed an area, it helps to keep other trades from damaging the joints. New beads should be left to cure before cleaning or decorating nearby.
External joints sealed in poor weather are a common cause of early failure. Holding off until conditions suit avoids callbacks, so we plan external work with that in mind.
Facades, frames and programmes in Kelty
Scotland has its own building regulations, and in Kelty warrants come from the local authority verifier. The mastic follows the specification that goes with the warrant. Being in the east of Scotland, Kelty gets less rain than the west coast. Frost and condensation on frames and panels can still hold up external mastic on winter mornings. We agree external dates with the site team and keep internal work ready.
School extensions, at buildings such as Beath High School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included. New units and refits on sites such as Glenfield Industrial Estate, 1.7 miles south-east of Kelty, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Hospital estates such as Queen Margaret Hospital (4.1 miles south-west of Kelty) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
Kelty is about 5 miles north-east of Dunfermline, in Fife. Kelty sits inside our coverage, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. 132 places across Fife fall within our area, including Kelty. Edinburgh is covered too, around 15 miles from Kelty.

What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- The size and state of each joint
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- How much existing material needs removing
- How accessible the joints are
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Access details, including height
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The postcode of the building
For a fixed quote, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form. You can also send details through our quote form.
For managing agents and facilities managers
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Kelty can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over a damaged joint can get an area past inspection, but it rarely lasts. New sealant laid on old or dirty sealant has nothing to bond to, and the defect comes back after handover. We cut out and redo the joint properly. Around smaller places like Kelty, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
