Maintenance after handover
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Use the product the specification names
- Don’t force external sealing on a damp or frosty day
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
At handover, keep the product details with the O&M information. That helps the building owner maintain the joints later. We can confirm the handover information you need when we quote.
Frames with gaps too wide for sealant need sorting before the mastic goes on. Sealant stretched over an oversized gap won’t last so packing or adjustment by the installer comes first. We flag them as soon as we see them.
Construction mastic in Murthly, done properly
On refurbishments, the mastic package normally includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. Existing joints have to be stripped back to sound faces, because fresh sealant can’t key into cured silicone and the asbestos survey is checked first on older stock. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. Most enquiries involve bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean and window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection, on floor and skirting junctions, internal decorators’ caulk and cladding and panel joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Murthly tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In smaller places such as Murthly, 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.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Construction mastic in Murthly: the local picture
In Murthly, as across Scotland, building warrants are issued by the local authority verifier under the Scottish regulations. Our job is to seal to that specification. The east of Scotland, where Murthly is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and condensation on frames and panels can still hold up external mastic on winter mornings. External dates keep a little give.
On any site in or around Murthly, the mastic follows the specification and the programme. Hospital estates such as Blairgowrie Community Hospital (to the north-east of Murthly) 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.
Murthly is about 6 miles south-west of Blairgowrie and Rattray, in Perth and Kinross. Commercial clients in Murthly use us for work on mastic packages, as part of our coverage of Perth and Kinross. We work across 114 places in Perth and Kinross, large and small. For work in that direction, see our Dundee page.

How a job runs
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. For work around Murthly, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We walk the site or review drawings to understand the package.
- 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.
- Any frame gaps or issues outside our scope are flagged to the site team.
- The package is closed out, snags cleared and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Questions we’re asked in Murthly
Can you keep pace with our programme in Murthly?
Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Would you work within a site like Blairgowrie Community Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
How much does the work cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with a description of the work.
Can you quote from photographs?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Is colour matching possible?
It depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Can you fit around our programme?
We work to your programme. Tell us the sequence and we’ll plan applicators around it, sealing as areas become ready.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
What happens if it’s left?
A quick bead over a damaged joint can get an area past inspection. New sealant laid on old or dirty sealant has nothing to bond to, and the defect comes back after handover. Damaged joints are removed and resealed from clean faces. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
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 rules also count.
