Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. For a building near Aviemore, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We’ll confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- First we review photos, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Preparing the site
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Advice
How we handle facade sealing in Aviemore
Managing agents and owners in Aviemore ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. The approach doesn’t change with the size: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. If you have air leaks through failed facade joints and weathered facade joints that have lost their grip, we can put it right, on cladding panel joints, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and shopfront frames alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Aviemore it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
External sealing around Aviemore depends on dry faces and the right temperature. A little flexibility in the programme lets external joints go in on suitable days.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

What else we do in Aviemore
Common problems we fix in Aviemore
Sun, rain and temperature swings wear facade sealant down over the years. The bead hardens, chalks on the surface and loses the flexibility to follow the joint, then it splits or peels.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Cairngorm Technology Park, under half a mile to the east of Aviemore, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.
What your quote should include
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Proof of insurance
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, 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.
Looking after the joints
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
Let the new sealant cure before washing the facade or windows near it. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead and tell your cleaning contractor.
Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. A few metres resealed promptly can stop water damage spreading behind the facade.
Facade sealing in Aviemore: the local picture
Being in the east of Scotland, Aviemore gets less rain than the west coast. Frosty spells still affect external mastic dates. External mastic is planned with the site manager for workable conditions. Building work in Aviemore comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004 and their technical handbooks, with warrants from the local authority verifier. Our job is to seal to that specification.
On a healthcare site such as Badenoch and Strathspey Community Hospital, which lies south-east of Aviemore, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. For a contractor at a hotel such as MacDonald Aviemore Hotel, 0.8 miles south of Aviemore, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.
Aviemore is about 24 miles south-east of Inverness, in Highland. Across the PH22 postcode area, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee.

Common questions from Aviemore clients
Do you cover business parks and estates near Aviemore, such as Cairngorm Technology Park?
Yes, sites like Cairngorm Technology Park are within our area, along with the rest of Aviemore. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Badenoch and Strathspey Community Hospital, something you do?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
What will the job cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with a description of the work.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Why deal with it now?
Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. Behind the frame, that can mean damp plaster, stained ceilings, corroded fixings and damaged insulation. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Aviemore before they leak.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
