Facade sealing in An Luirg, done properly
External joints face UV, rain, temperature swings and building movement all year. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. Most enquiries involve failed sealant on precast panel joints and failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames, on cladding panel joints, coping and flashing joints and window and door perimeters. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in An Luirg tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Sites near smaller places like An Luirg can mean longer travel, so the mastic is planned with as few trips as the job allows. Send drawings, photographs and the programme so everything needed arrives on the first day.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Commercial clients in An Luirg
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. One quote can cover more than one site, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Quoting for work in An Luirg
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Any access equipment needed
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- The postcode of the building
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The product your specification calls for
- What the building is and how it’s used
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Why act early in An Luirg
A few metres of new sealant compare well with replacing ceilings, linings or damaged stock. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts. For buildings near An Luirg, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

Do you need facade sealing in An Luirg?
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead, and the patch soon lifts.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Lairg Highland Hotel, under half a mile south-west of An Luirg, normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.

Questions we’re asked in An Luirg
Can you keep pace with our programme in An Luirg?
Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Is a smaller place like An Luirg outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is colour matching possible?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for 12 months. If our installation fails in that time, we return and fix it.
How soon can the area be used again?
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.
Do you use silicone for external joints?
It depends on the joint, the substrate and any specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them, and we work to what is specified.
