Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Why deal with it now?
Topping up a failed joint normally buys very little time. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, so it’s worth renewing joints around Auchengray before they leak.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Share access with other external trades
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
Record the sealant type and date on the building file. Future work can then match the product and colour across the elevation.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and cuts time on site.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

Signs you need facade sealing in Auchengray
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, so the new bead peels away within a season or two.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Water coming in around window frames
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
On any site in or around Auchengray, the mastic follows the specification and the programme.
Questions to ask before you book

How a job runs
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself typically taking a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. For a building near Auchengray, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- We start with photos, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- The existing bead comes out in full.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Before we start on site
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
