Facade sealing in Auchmithie
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site, and we’ll fit the work around it. Most enquiries involve water coming in around window frames and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, across cladding panel joints, stone and brick facade joints and window and door perimeters. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Auchmithie is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
External sealing around Auchmithie depends on dry faces and the right temperature. A little flexibility in the programme lets external joints go in on suitable days.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

What affects the price in Auchmithie
To price the job, we consider:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Which sealant the job calls for
- The total length or number of joints
- Access and working height
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- The type of building and who uses it
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form to discuss it first.
Why act early in Auchmithie
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Leaks travel along the structure. For buildings near Auchmithie, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
A quote for facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

Mastic packages on Auchmithie sites
Auchmithie lies within about 1 mile of the sea. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. Auchmithie is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Winter mornings can still bring frost and condensation on steel and glass. External dates keep a little give.
Projects at colleges like Dundee & Angus College - The Glebe, 2.8 miles to the south-west of Auchmithie, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Wardmill Industrial Estate (to the south-west of Auchmithie) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.
Auchmithie is about 3 miles north-east of Arbroath, in Angus.

Common questions from Auchmithie clients
Is Auchmithie too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across every Scottish council area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can work at a site such as Dundee & Angus College - The Glebe fit around teaching?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
How do we ask for a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
What will the job cost?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote and we will price it properly.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Share access with other external trades
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Ask the installer to reseal it properly.
Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones.

How a job runs
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For a building near Auchmithie, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.

Advice
Common problems we fix in Auchmithie
Sometimes the substrate is the problem: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. When the joint edges need repair first, we say so.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
On a healthcare site such as Arbroath Infirmary, which lies south-west of Auchmithie, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
