Looking after the joints
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Note which sealant went where at handover
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Protect sealed areas from following trades
- Use the product the specification names
The package carries our 12-month guarantee for workmanship. Damage by others isn’t a workmanship fault, so protecting sealed areas matters.
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. Checking perimeters before internal finishes go on avoids it.
Construction mastic in Whiteford
Buyers, tenants and clients notice sealant lines long before they notice the structure. Untidy or missed joints are among the commonest snag items and clearing them late eats into the handover window. Our aim is joints that pass at the first inspection, whatever the size of the scheme. If you have frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed and early adhesion failures on new external joints, we can help. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Whiteford it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
For a site around Whiteford, we plan the mastic in as few trips as the programme allows. Send drawings, photographs and the programme so everything needed arrives on the first day.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

New build and refits around Whiteford

Whiteford is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Frosty spells still affect external mastic dates. We programme around it with the site team.
Sites around Whiteford get mastic sealed to the drawings and the programme, nothing improvised.

What’s near Whiteford

What sets the cost
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Any specification or named product
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The postcode of the building
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
When to call us in Whiteford
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.
Look out for the following:
- A long mastic snag list close to completion
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
Hospital estates such as House Of Daviot Hospital, 1.9 miles to the north-east of Whiteford, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
What we can’t put right
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
- Damage to finishes by other trades after we have sealed
- Fire-stopping design or sign-off (that’s for the designer, fire engineer and building control)
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Cladding and panel joints

Advice
Doing it in-house
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Your questions answered
Can the mastic package for our job in Whiteford follow the site programme?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we’ll plan the mastic to suit the stages. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is a hospital such as House Of Daviot Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can you work plot by plot or floor by floor?
Working to your programme, we seal each area as it’s handed over. The sequence is agreed with the site manager at the start and updated as the programme moves.
Is colour matching possible?
It depends on the product. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
