Questions about Old Deer
Can you keep pace with our programme in Old Deer?
Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Would you work within a site like Maud Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
In the majority of cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
Is the mastic package guaranteed?
The work is guaranteed for 12 months, covering how we sealed. Keeping other trades off finished joints prevents most problems.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Construction mastic in Old Deer, done properly
Most of the packages we price run well beyond frames: frame perimeters inside and out, caulking to trims and boards where the specification calls for it, sanitary silicone, kitchens, and the final snag list. Splitting those between trades often leaves gaps in responsibility, and one applicator team gives a consistent finish. We work on floor and skirting junctions, internal decorators’ caulk and brick and block movement joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are internal caulk splitting as the building dries out and old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Old Deer it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Construction around smaller Scottish places like Old Deer is often one-off schemes: a school, a health centre, a hotel extension or a few houses. The mastic still needs to suit exposed elevations and Scottish weather.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Do you need construction mastic in Old Deer?
A new building moves while it dries and settles. Materials lose construction moisture and shrink and internal caulk in a moving joint is usually the first to crack. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
- Oversized or tapered gaps around new frames
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
Projects at schools like Mintlaw Academy work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.
What your quote should include
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
Building owners, agents and FMs in Old Deer
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
On site: what to expect
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For a building near Old Deer, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- A fixed quote sets out the scope, the products and the sequence.
- Any site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) is confirmed with the quote.
- Work follows the programme, area by area, as rooms and elevations become ready.
- Every joint is prepared, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.

How the quote is worked out
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Any access equipment needed
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
Before you send an enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- The product your specification calls for
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- The site address and postcode
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, ring 01277 525 020 or email us.
Why act early in Old Deer
Clearing snags piecemeal is tempting when handover is close. A planned sweep of each plot or floor catches the lot in one go and saves applicators coming back again and again. We can run snagging as its own phase before handover. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Old Deer, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Brick and block movement joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding and panel joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Internal decorators’ caulk
Construction mastic in Old Deer: the local picture
Scotland has its own building regulations, and in Old Deer warrants come from the local authority verifier. The mastic follows the specification that goes with the warrant. Being in the east of Scotland, Old Deer gets less rain than the west coast. Frosty spells still affect external mastic dates. External mastic is planned with the site manager for workable conditions.
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Maud Hospital, 3.2 miles to the west of Old Deer, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. For a contractor at a hotel such as Saplinbrae House Hotel, 0.5 miles north-west of Old Deer, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.
