How expansion joint sealing works in Clackmannanshire
Long runs of brick or block have movement joints built in. Failed sealant here lets rain into the wall and can leave the joint full of debris. The old seal is cut away, backing rod goes in at depth, and a low-modulus masonry sealant is gunned and tooled with primer where the maker calls for it. The enquiries we see most involve spalled or broken joint edges in floors and decks and previous reseals laid over old sealant, on precast concrete panel joints, cladding panel joints and brickwork movement joints.
Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take, and flag anything that needs an engineer.
- Every joint is cleared of the failed seal and any grit packed into it.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.

Estates, car parks and floors in Clackmannanshire
From Alloa, Tullibody and Tillicoultry to smaller places, Clackmannanshire has buildings and slabs with movement joints that need resealing as they age. When they fail, water and grit get in and the edges start to break.
Work in Clackmannanshire comes under Scotland’s own building standards and technical handbooks. We seal to what has been specified, on every job. In the parts of Clackmannanshire near the sea, the elevations facing the weather are where sealant gives up first, so they’re worth inspecting more often.
Alloa: Hospital campuses such as William Simpson Asylum, 5.2 miles to the south-west of Alloa, grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old. For a school such as Alloa Academy, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.
What affects the price in Clackmannanshire
What shapes the price:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Access and working height
- The site’s rules and procedures
- How much there is to seal
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- When you need the work done
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to phone 01277 525 020 or email us.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
- A joint that has to be widened or re-detailed before it can work
Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant
- Look over external and deck joints after a hard winter
- Keep racking legs and heavy point loads off floor joints
- Clear dirt from joint lines during routine cleaning
Every joint we seal is backed by a 12-month guarantee on workmanship. Keep the handover details, product and date with your O&M records, so the next reseal starts with the facts.
External wall joints that fail let rain into the masonry and cavity. The first sign is often a damp patch indoors. Resealing promptly prevents internal damage.
What we’re called out for in Clackmannanshire
Some joints were never sealed with the right product. A stiff or general-purpose sealant across a joint with large movement won’t cope. BS EN ISO 11600 classifies building sealants by movement capability.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Joints where the bead has lost adhesion
- Expansion joints filled with dirt and stones
- Hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades
- New sealant over old, now failing
For managing agents and facilities managers
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
FAQs: Clackmannanshire
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
When can the area be used after sealing?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.
Do you take on small jobs?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
What’s the difference between an expansion joint and a movement joint?
The terms overlap a great deal. Both let materials grow and shrink with temperature, moisture and load while the sealant stops grit and water getting in.
What will the job cost?
We don’t publish prices, as every site differs. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
