About our construction mastic in Stewartfield
Refurbishment work needs a slightly different approach from new build. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old and the asbestos survey is checked first on older stock. After that, the joints are prepared and sealed to the specification. The enquiries we see most involve existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing and internal caulk splitting as the building dries out, across sanitary and kitchen joints, window and door perimeters and floor and skirting junctions. Whoever orders the work in Stewartfield, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In smaller places such as Stewartfield, building work tends to be single schemes rather than big developments. The mastic still needs to suit exposed elevations and Scottish weather.
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.

Snagging before handover
Snags usually come from damage by following trades, missed joints or poor earlier work. Snagging can be included or priced separately, depending on what suits the programme.
Kitchens and utility areas
On commercial kitchen fit-outs, hygienic sealants are often specified. Joints are sealed smooth so they’re easy to clean.
When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly.

Questions about Stewartfield
Is Stewartfield too far out for you?
No. Places such as Stewartfield are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Does your area include sites such as Queensway Retail Park, near Stewartfield?
Yes, sites like Queensway Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Stewartfield. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you work to our specification?
We work to the specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance. Primers, backing and joint depth follow what the manufacturer sets out.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Common problems we fix in Stewartfield
Wide, tapered or inconsistent gaps around frames are a common problem. Sealant has a range of joint widths it can cope with, so gaps outside that range need sorting by the installer first. Better to raise it at the start than seal a joint that’s bound to fail.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
- Old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work
When a school such as Duncanrig Secondary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
