When to call us in Tulloch
A joint without backing rod or bond-breaker often fails early. Fixed to three faces, the sealant rips the first time the joint opens so we set the depth properly before sealing.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Early adhesion failures on new external joints
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
- Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
- Missed perimeter joints on a new elevation
On a healthcare site such as Perth Royal Infirmary (1.3 miles south-east of Tulloch), new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.
Questions to ask before you book
- Proof of insurance
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
About our construction mastic in Tulloch
Mastic follows everyone else, which means it absorbs every delay upstream. The sequence is set with the site team and updated as plots or floors are handed over and we don’t seal before other trades have finished in an area. Sealing too early only means coming back once others have damaged it. We work on window and door perimeters, floor and skirting junctions and cladding and panel joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing and window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Tulloch? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
For a site around Tulloch, we plan the mastic in as few trips as the programme allows. Clear drawings, a programme and photos let us bring the right sealants, primers and backing rod first time.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Work at a hotel such as Leonardo Boutique Hotel Huntingtower Perth (to the west of Tulloch) tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included. When a school such as Bertha Park High School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

Our process
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking as long as the agreed sequence needs, which comes down to joint lengths, access and handover dates. For a building near Tulloch, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the 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.
- You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
- We seal each plot or floor as it’s released to us.
- Joints are cleaned, primed where the maker requires it, backed and sealed to the specification.
- Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
Quotes
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Advice
Work for main contractors and building owners
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Honest limits
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
If you are not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Brick and block movement joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding and panel joints
FAQs: Tulloch
Is Tulloch off your patch?
Not at all. Tulloch is within our area. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Perth Royal Infirmary, something you do?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
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, and we confirm it before leaving site.
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.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Aftercare for building managers
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
- Brief the final clean team to avoid blades near sealant
- Use the product the specification names
A new structure shifts as it loses construction moisture. Flexible sealants in the right joints handle normal movement, but caulk in a joint that moves more than expected may crack. We can advise if a joint needs a different product.
Leaving the mastic snag list to the end squeezes everyone. Clearing snags area by area spreads the work out.
