New Aberdeen: questions and answers
Is hospital work, at somewhere like City Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Who arranges mastic work on a tenement in New Aberdeen?
Typically through the property factor, once the owners have agreed. We are happy to deal with the factor directly.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Can you work plot by plot or floor by floor?
The programme sets the job. Share the release dates and we’ll match our work to them.
Do you guarantee new-build sealant work?
It carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. We carry five million pounds of public liability insurance.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Construction mastic in New Aberdeen, done properly
The programme rarely stands still, so the mastic package has to flex with it. The sequence is set with the site team and updated as plots or floors are handed over and we don’t seal before other trades have finished in an area. That keeps the work right first time and saves rework. If you’re dealing with perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range and a mastic package split between trades with no clear owner, we can help, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in New Aberdeen, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Sites in Scottish city centres tend to be hemmed in, with deliveries and storage to plan. Our CSCS-carded applicators work to the site induction, the programme and the sequence of trades.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

After the work
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Ask for joint and product checks before the package is urgent
- Keep scrapers and abrasive pads off new beads
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
- Don’t force external sealing on a damp or frosty day
Expect some settlement in the first months. The right product in each joint copes with that. If that happens, let us know.
A missed perimeter seal on one window can wet the reveal and the plaster inside. That typically means redoing finishes in a completed area and possibly a delayed handover. A check of every frame before decorators start is worth the time.
Our process
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. University, hospital and office estates in Scotland’s cities have their own permits, inductions and sign-in rules. Pass on the site’s contractor rules when you get in touch.
- 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.
- Sealing follows the programme as areas are released.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

Sites and facades in and around New Aberdeen
New Aberdeen sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. 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 plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of New Aberdeen. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
For contractors on a campus like Robert Gordon University, which lies west of New Aberdeen, facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates. On a healthcare site such as City Hospital, 0.5 miles north-east of New Aberdeen, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. When a school such as Robert Gordon's College is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

What affects the price in New Aberdeen
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- How accessible the joints are
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What we need to price the job
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- The site address and postcode
- Any dates the work must fit around
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to discuss it first.

When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Brick and block movement joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Window and door perimeters
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
What happens if it’s left?
It helps to bring the mastic subcontractor in before the package is urgent. We can check joint widths, flag frames with gaps that won’t seal and confirm products against the specification, which avoids last-minute problems. Called in at the end, the same issues surface during handover. Getting access arranged for a building in New Aberdeen takes time, so deal with all failing joints while access is up.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
