About our construction mastic in Meikleour
On refurbishments, the mastic package usually includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old, and on older buildings we ask for the asbestos survey before disturbing anything. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. Site teams most often ask us about bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean and perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range, on window and door perimeters, brick and block movement joints and sanitary and kitchen joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Meikleour tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Outside mastic in Scotland needs a dry, frost-clear joint, and in a place like Meikleour that means watching the forecast. A little flexibility in the programme lets external joints go in on suitable days.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Meikleour as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

When to bring in a specialist
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
After the work
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
- Note which sealant went where at handover
Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Blades and abrasive pads are the commonest cause of damage at the final clean.
One unsealed frame can let water into finished internal areas. That usually means redoing finishes in a completed area, and a delay to handover. A check of every frame before decorators start is worth the time.
Your questions answered
Would you work within a site like Blairgowrie Community Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.

Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
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 clear a mastic snag list before handover?
Yes, we can. Send the snag list or photographs and we’ll price it.

Advice
Mastic packages on Meikleour sites
Being in the east of Scotland, Meikleour gets less rain than the west coast. Frosty spells still affect external mastic dates. We programme around it with the site team. The area within 2 miles of Meikleour holds a number of hotels. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
Hotels like Meikleour Arms Hotel & Restaurant, under half a mile north of Meikleour, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.
Meikleour is about 4 miles south of Blairgowrie and Rattray, in Perth and Kinross. We send applicators to Meikleour for mastic packages. Meikleour is one of 114 places in Perth and Kinross on our list for mastic packages. There’s a separate page for Dundee, roughly 16 miles from Meikleour.
Anyone looking for construction mastic in PH2 gets the same process as the rest of our area: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Among the streets we cover are Mercer Green, Old Military Road and Carsie Road, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. Just outside Meikleour, we also work in Carsie (2 miles north-east), Burrelton (3 miles south-east), Woodside (3 miles south-east), Spittalfield (3 miles west) and Kinloch (3 miles north).

Why it’s worth doing now in Meikleour
On a refurbishment, there’s a choice between resealing existing frames and replacing them. If the frame is in good order, cutting out and resealing the perimeter can be all it needs. If the frame is life-expired, we will tell you. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, so it’s worth renewing joints around Meikleour before they leak.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Signs you need construction mastic in Meikleour
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, so they end up back on the snag list.
Typical triggers for a call:
- A long mastic snag list close to completion
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant alone
- Inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot
Hospital estates such as Blairgowrie Community Hospital (to the north of Meikleour) 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.
What to look for in a quote
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Their public liability cover
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
What sets the cost
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Phasing around occupants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Location, for remote and island sites
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
What we need to price the job
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Specification clauses that apply
- Access details, including height
