About our expansion joint sealing in Logierait
The seal is what lets a movement joint do its job. Once it fails, water, grit and debris get in. Resealing at the first signs of failure is far cheaper than repairing the material either side. The enquiries we see most involve spalled or broken joint edges in floors and decks and debris jammed in movement joints, on blockwork control joints, brickwork movement joints and precast concrete panel joints. Searching for sealant specialists in Logierait? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
Travel to smaller places like Logierait is planned so the work is done in one trip where possible. Send photographs, joint widths and details of the traffic first.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will come back to it.

How a job runs
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work typically takes a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases, and we clear our waste as we work. For work around Logierait, we aim for one trip, so photos, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
- Where areas have to stay open, we agree a phased sequence before starting.
- We strip the old sealant or filler and prepare each face until it’s sound and dry.
- Depth is controlled with backing, the faces are primed where the maker calls for it, then the bead is laid and tooled.
- Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Preparing the site
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Point out any areas we must not close

Leave it or put it right?
Spot repairs can be useful on a tight budget. The remaining sealant is often close to failing too and repeated access costs add up. We can price a patch and a full reseal side by side. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Logierait before they leak.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

When to call us in Logierait
The edges of the material can fail rather than the sealant. If the edge of the joint is friable, the bond fails with it, so we tell you if the edges need repairing first.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed
- Previous reseals laid over old sealant
- Water dripping through deck or ramp joints
- Arrises breaking up along floor joints
Around Logierait, each joint gets a filler or sealant matched to what crosses it and how much it moves.
Questions to ask before you book
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
Questions about Logierait
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Pitlochry Community Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Must our site in Logierait stop work while the joints are done?
In the majority of cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Can you fit around our working hours?
We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
When is resealing likely to be due?
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.
Do you use silicone or polyurethane in movement joints?
It depends on the movement, exposure and traffic. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many facade joints, while polyurethane is common in trafficked floor and deck joints.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Owners, agents and contractors
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Floors, slabs and movement joints in Logierait
The east of Scotland, where Logierait is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and de-icing salt still find their way into open external joints. Resealing before the cold months helps protect the edges.
Large sites such as Pitlochry Community Hospital (4.3 miles north-west of Logierait) have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels.
Logierait is about 14 miles west of Blairgowrie and Rattray, in Perth and Kinross. Anywhere in PH9, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed.

Local landmarks in Logierait
The nearest railway station is Pitlochry station, about 4.3 miles north-west of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Tom na Croiche (less than half a mile north-east) and Pitlochry Community Hospital (4.3 miles north-west). Not far away are Loch Skiach.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
What affects the price in Logierait
To price the job, we consider:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- The product specified
- Any access equipment needed
- Travel to remote or island sites
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
