Construction mastic in Kelvinhaugh, done properly
We work to the specification and the programme rather than whatever product is to hand. Where the specification names a product, we use it. Backing, primer and depth follow what the sealant maker sets out. If you are dealing with frame gaps too wide for sealant alone and old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work, we can put it right, on brick and block movement joints, cladding and panel joints and window and door perimeters alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Kelvinhaugh, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Where new frames meet sandstone or granite in a Scottish city, the sealant has to suit the stone: neutral-cure products that won’t mark the masonry, primed where the maker says, in a colour that sits with it.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Glasgow. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll come back to it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens and utility areas
On commercial kitchen fit-outs, hygienic sealants are often specified. We follow the specification and seal to a smooth, cleanable finish.
External facade and movement joints
Many facade substrates need a primer before sealing. Primer goes on where the sealant maker calls for it.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Kelvinhaugh
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
- Damage to finishes by other trades after we’ve sealed
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
