General trades versus a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Newmachar
Mastic Doctor has been a subcontractor on construction projects for over 20 years. Quantities come off the drawings, the sequence is agreed with the site manager and the work follows the trades. To price a package in Newmachar, send drawings and the specification through our quote form. We work on sanitary and kitchen joints, window and door perimeters and brick and block movement joints, and what we’re called in for most is perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range and snag items on joints that need redoing before handover. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Newmachar is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
External sealing around Newmachar depends on dry faces and the right temperature. We build some give into the plan and agree it with the site manager.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

What we can’t put right
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Brick and block movement joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding and panel joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Internal decorators’ caulk
On site: what to expect
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For work around Newmachar, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- Drawings, the sealant specification and your programme come to us for pricing.
- A fixed quote sets out the scope, the products and the sequence.
- You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
- Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
- Each joint is prepared, backed to depth and sealed in the product the specification names.
- Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Advice
Why act early in Newmachar
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. Called in at the end, the same issues surface during handover. Around smaller places like Newmachar, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What you get with us
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- CSCS-carded applicators
- Colours confirmed for the specified product
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available

Different surfaces, different methods
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Where the specification calls for fire-rated or intumescent sealant around service penetrations or linear gaps, we install it to the manufacturer’s tested detail. Fire stopping design belongs to the designer and building control.
Window and door perimeters
Inside, a paintable sealant or decorators’ caulk is used where the joint doesn’t move much. We follow what’s specified with colours matched to the frame where needed.
Common questions from Newmachar clients
Can you work on a hospital site such as Kingseat Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Will you take on work at estates like Bridgehaugh Industrial Estate, close to Newmachar?
Yes. We cover Newmachar and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Bridgehaugh Industrial Estate. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Can fire-rated sealing at service penetrations be included?
We install fire-rated sealant where it is the specified product to the tested detail. If the detail calls for collars, wraps or batts instead, we’ll tell you.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, as every site differs. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Our applicators hold CSCS cards, and we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. We’re also fully insured, with five million pounds of public liability cover.
Building and refurbishing in Newmachar
Building work in Newmachar comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004 and their technical handbooks, with warrants from the local authority verifier. The mastic package follows the approved specification. Newmachar is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Frosty spells still affect external mastic dates. External mastic is planned with the site manager for workable conditions.
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Newmachar Hotel, less than half a mile to the north-west of Newmachar, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. Projects at schools like New Machar Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Bridgehaugh Industrial Estate, 2.5 miles to the south of Newmachar, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.
