About our facade sealing in Arncroach
Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We remove failed sealant and install a new bead chosen for the joint and how far it moves. Site teams most often ask us about staining on stone next to old sealant and draughts around frames and panels, across window and door perimeters, coping and flashing joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Arncroach is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Outside mastic in Scotland needs a dry, frost-clear joint, and in a place like Arncroach that means watching the forecast. We build some give into the plan and agree it with the site manager.
Work we carry out in Fife comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will come back to it.

Sites and facades in and around Arncroach
Arncroach is within about 3 miles of the coast. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. Arncroach is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Cold, damp starts still stop external sealing on some days. We programme around it with the site team.
When units on a site such as Bass Rock Business Park, 2.2 miles south of Arncroach, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

Questions about Arncroach
Is Arncroach too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Arncroach, such as Bass Rock Business Park?
Yes, sites like Bass Rock Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Arncroach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you replace windows or glass?
No. We don’t install glazing systems, windows or glass. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Can you find out why a window is leaking?
Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Failed perimeter sealant is a common cause, but not the only one.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

Common problems we fix in Arncroach
The wrong product causes its share of trouble: acetoxy-cure silicone may mark stone or corrode certain metals, and an interior product won’t last outdoors. Most external joints call for a neutral-cure, facade-grade sealant.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Water coming in around window frames
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
Older buildings in the area around Arncroach, such as Gibliston House, which lies west of Arncroach, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.

When it isn’t the sealant
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Damaged frames that need replacing
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
- Work on the window or framing system itself
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What happens if it’s left?
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts. For buildings near Arncroach, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work typically takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather.

Advice
Should maintenance staff do it?
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
