About our construction mastic in Patterton
Site managers want applicators who turn up with the right cards and paperwork. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and we’re fully insured. RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details can be confirmed with the quote if you tell us what you need. The enquiries we see most involve perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range and failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished, on brick and block movement joints, sanitary and kitchen joints and window and door perimeters. Most enquiries from Patterton start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Construction around smaller Scottish places like Patterton 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.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Different surfaces, different methods
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, and colour-matched products can be used where the frame is on show.
External facade and movement joints
Movement joints in the facade are sealed with a product suited to the expected movement. We set the depth with backing rod to avoid three-sided adhesion.
Common problems we fix in Patterton
A new building moves while it dries and settles. Materials lose construction moisture and shrink. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
- Old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
School extensions, at buildings such as Eastwood High School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
Questions to ask before you book
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
Why act early in Patterton
A quick bead over a damaged joint can get an area past inspection. Sealant can’t grip a contaminated or existing bead and the defect reappears in the defects period. Damaged joints are removed and resealed from clean faces. Around smaller places like Patterton, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.

Questions about Patterton
Is a hospital such as Leverndale Hospital somewhere you can work?
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 Greenlaw Retail Park, close to Patterton?
Yes, sites like Greenlaw Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Patterton. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.

Our process
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Where we can, we combine work around Patterton with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.

Advice
Maintenance after handover
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Use the product the specification names
- Don’t force external sealing on a damp or frosty day
- Ask for joint and product checks before the package is urgent
- Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
At handover, keep the product details with the O&M information. That helps the building owner maintain the joints later and avoids guesswork when joints are renewed. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Sanitary joints that fail early become defects soon after occupation. Water gets behind trays, vanity tops and panels, leaving the remedial work to the contractor. Getting the product and preparation right first time avoids that.
