Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
After the work
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Plan external elevations with the weather in mind
- Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
- Put any product change through the designer first
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
At handover, keep the product details with the O&M information. That helps the building owner maintain the joints later, and tells you what to reseal with. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
A missed perimeter seal on one window can wet the reveal and the plaster inside. That typically means redoing finishes in a completed area and possibly a delayed handover. A check of every frame before decorators start is worth the time.
About our construction mastic in Tom nan Ragh
Buyers, tenants and clients notice sealant lines long before they notice the structure. A smeared bead round a window or a gap behind a worktop ends up on the snag list. Our aim is joints that pass at the first inspection, area by area through the programme. We work on brick and block movement joints, floor and skirting junctions and window and door perimeters, and what we’re called in for most is frame gaps too wide for sealant alone and new external sealant already peeling away. Searching for sealant specialists in Tom nan Ragh? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Outside mastic in Scotland needs a dry, frost-clear joint, and in a place like Tom nan Ragh that means watching the forecast. A little flexibility in the programme lets external joints go in on suitable days.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Tom nan Ragh as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Building and refurbishing in Tom nan Ragh
Tom nan Ragh lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. Tom nan Ragh is in the west of Scotland, the wetter side of the country. External mastic dates are agreed with the site manager, with internal sealant kept ready for wet days.
On a healthcare site such as Cowal Community Hospital (2.8 miles south-east of Tom nan Ragh), new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.
Tom nan Ragh is about 8 miles north-west of Greenock, in Argyll and Bute.

Why it’s worth doing now in Tom nan Ragh
On a refurbishment, there’s a choice between resealing existing frames and replacing them. Sound frames often need only a new perimeter seal, which is a much smaller cost. If the frame is life-expired, we’ll tell you. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Tom nan Ragh. Send photos and we will quote for everything together.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Do you need construction mastic in Tom nan Ragh?
A joint without backing rod or bond-breaker often fails early. Bonded to the base of the joint and both sides, sealant can’t stretch evenly so we set the depth properly before sealing.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Mastic snags holding up handover
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
For a contractor at a hotel such as Cot House Hotel, 0.8 miles to the north of Tom nan Ragh, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.

FAQs: Tom nan Ragh
Would you work within a site like Cowal Community Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Our building in Tom nan Ragh is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
Can you fit around our working hours?
We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
Can you work to our specification?
We use the product the specification names. Any suggested alternative is put to you before anything changes.
Are you CHAS accredited?
We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards. We confirm any paperwork you need with the quote.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
How a job runs
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us.

- 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.
- 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.
Before we start on site
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Arrange parking or a loading space
Quotes
Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Floor and skirting junctions
