Our process
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Where we can, we combine work around Stronmilchan with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
- We take off quantities and return a fixed quote.
- We agree with the site team which areas come first.
- Plots or floors are sealed as they’re handed over.
- Joints are prepared, backed and sealed to the specification.
- After snagging, the work is handed over under our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice
How we handle construction mastic in Stronmilchan
The programme rarely stands still, so the mastic package has to flex with it. We agree a sequence at the start and adjust it as the site manager releases areas, so applicators arrive when areas are genuinely ready. That keeps the work right first time and saves rework. If you’re dealing with internal caulk splitting as the building dries out and perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range, we can help, whatever the surface. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Stronmilchan? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
For a site around Stronmilchan, we plan the mastic in as few trips as the programme allows. Clear drawings, a programme and photographs let us bring the right sealants, primers and backing rod first time.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

FAQs: Stronmilchan
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Stronmilchan?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. We hold £5m public liability insurance, are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators are CSCS-carded.
Can the mastic package for our job in Stronmilchan follow the site programme?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we’ll plan the mastic to suit the stages. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Do you do fire-rated sealing on new builds?
Where it’s specified, yes to the tested detail. If the detail calls for collars, wraps or batts instead, we will tell you.
When can you be on site?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
When to bring in a specialist
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Surface by surface
Snagging before handover
The last pass before handover is where mastic snags are cleared. Snags are cleared room by room and damaged joints are redone rather than patched.
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Not every penetration suits a sealant. Other products are used for some services and gaps, and we will tell you if the detail calls for something else. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Keep product details for future maintenance
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
- Stick to the specified sealant rather than a generic substitute
At handover, keep the product details with the O&M information. Future maintenance is easier when the products are known and avoids guesswork when joints are renewed. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Sealing outside when the joint is damp or too cold leads to poor adhesion. Holding off until conditions suit avoids callbacks.
New build and refits around Stronmilchan

Sites around Stronmilchan get mastic sealed to the drawings and the programme, nothing improvised. Hotels like Dalmally Hotel, 1.2 miles to the south-east of Stronmilchan, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.

Why deal with it now?
Sealing over damaged or contaminated new joints might save a day, but it won’t last. New sealant laid on old or dirty sealant has nothing to bond to. We cut out and redo the joint properly. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Stronmilchan, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
