Questions we’re asked in Lonemore
Does the sea air around Lonemore change the choice of sealant?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Is Lonemore off your patch?
No. Places such as Lonemore are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
What happens if the weather stops external sealing?
External sealing goes ahead only with a dry joint inside the product’s temperature range. Sealing in poor conditions risks adhesion failure.
What guarantee comes with a mastic package?
It carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. We’re also fully insured for public liability.
How much does the work cost?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. Send photos or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
Can fire-rated sealing at service penetrations be included?
Fire-rated sealing at service penetrations and linear gaps can be included where specified. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
About our construction mastic in Lonemore
Getting a subcontractor through site induction should be simple. We’re a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and every applicator holds a CSCS card, and we are fully insured. RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details can be confirmed with the quote if you tell us what you need. We work on brick and block movement joints, cladding and panel joints and internal decorators’ caulk, and what we’re called in for most is sanitary sealant damaged by following trades and cracks opening in caulked internal joints. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Lonemore it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
In smaller places such as Lonemore, building work tends to be single schemes rather than big developments. Exposed elevations in Scotland put facade and perimeter joints to work from day one, so the sealant choice matters.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

How the quote is worked out
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The total length or number of joints
- The product specified
- Removal of failed or old sealant
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area

- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Your programme or deadline
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form to discuss it first.
Building and refurbishing in Lonemore
With the shore within about 1 mile, Lonemore counts as a coastal location. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Lonemore. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
When a school such as Gairloch High School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.
Lonemore is in Highland. We cover commercial sites throughout Lonemore, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Our Highland coverage takes in 256 places.
Anyone looking for construction mastic in IV21 gets the same process as the rest of our area: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. We also cover Gairloch (1 mile east), Badachro (2 miles south), Poolewe (5 miles north-east), Inverasdale (6 miles north) and Àird (9 miles north-east). For island and remote sites, travel and materials need planning ahead, so the full address helps from the start.
Near you in Lonemore
We work on buildings around Gairloch School and the streets around them. Nearby you’ll also find Gairloch Museum (1 mile east). Green spaces nearby include Linne a' Mhuilinn and Cnoc Dubh.
Honest limits
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Window and door perimeters
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Brick and block movement joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
Looking after the joints
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Plan external elevations with the weather in mind
- Don’t schedule sealing before decorators and flooring are done
- Record the products used in the O&M file
- Use the product the specification names
Tell the builders’ clean team which areas have new sealant. Scrapers used on frames and worktops can nick or lift a new bead.
One unsealed frame can let water into finished internal areas. On a new building that means remedial work after decorating, and a delay to handover. Checking perimeters before internal finishes go on avoids it.
When to call us in Lonemore
Frames installed with uneven gaps make perimeter sealing harder. Sealant has a range of joint widths it can cope with. Better to raise it at the start than seal a joint that’s bound to fail.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- External joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant alone
- Different trades sealing to different standards
- Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
Hotels like Millcroft Hotel (to the east of Lonemore) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?

Building owners, agents and FMs in Lonemore
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Lonemore can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Highland.
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Our process
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For work around Lonemore, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- First we look at the scope on site or from drawings.
- You receive a fixed quote covering scope, products and sequence.
- Site paperwork is confirmed and our CSCS-carded applicators are inducted.
- We seal plot by plot or floor by floor in line with the programme.
- Problems we find, such as oversized gaps, are raised right away.
- Final snagging is completed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Getting the site ready
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Let us know about inductions and permits
Getting a fixed quote
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
