When it isn’t the sealant
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Proprietary pre-formed expansion joint systems
- Concrete or masonry repairs along the arrises
- Cracking or settlement that calls for an engineer’s assessment
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in Bonnyton
Mastic Doctor has sealed movement joints since 2005, for main contractors, FMs, managing agents and building owners. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. Workmanship is backed by our 12-month guarantee. We work on brickwork movement joints, cladding panel joints and precast concrete panel joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are torn sealant in brick or block movement joints and hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades. Most enquiries from Bonnyton start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Around smaller Scottish places like Bonnyton, slabs needing attention are often in agricultural buildings, workshops, schools and hotels. Slabs and yards take vehicles, rain and frost.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

General trades versus a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
What happens if it’s left?
Sealing over a failed movement joint is a common shortcut. A bead laid on top of the failed one neither grips nor flexes properly. We cut out the old seal and prepare the faces every time. For buildings near Bonnyton, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photographs and we’ll quote for everything together.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Warehouse floors and decks around Bonnyton
The west of Scotland, where Bonnyton is, gets more rain than the east. Rainwater through open yard and deck joints is a bigger issue here than in the drier east. Outside joints are sealed in dry spells, so dates have some give. Less than 3 miles from Bonnyton there are at least three named estates and business parks. That puts plenty of warehouse floors, service yards and car parks close by, all with joints under traffic.
Estates like Bonnyton Industrial Estate (to the north-east of Bonnyton) combine warehouse slabs, yards and loading bays, all with joints under wheels. In a school such as Grange Academy, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak. Large sites such as University Hospital Crosshouse (to the west of Bonnyton) have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels.

Different surfaces, different methods
Cladding panel joints
We confirm what access is in place before pricing. Photos taken near the joints help us price accurately.
Internal floor movement joints
Wheeled traffic chips floor joint edges that aren’t supported. We match the product to the traffic and the movement.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Bonnyton is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We start with photographs, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Advice
Common questions from Bonnyton clients
Is a smaller place like Bonnyton outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like University Hospital Crosshouse, something you do?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is movement joint sealing guaranteed?
A 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship, and we’re fully insured for public liability. Keeping joints clear of debris helps them last.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
In the majority of cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use, with each area protected and signed.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Why do our movement joints keep failing?
The way it has failed typically tells us why: a split through the middle points to over-stretching, while peeling from one face points to preparation or primer. Broken edges are a third possibility.
