Facade sealing for Banbhaidh sites
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Precast concrete panels
Joints between precast panels carry real movement. A sealant of the right movement class goes in over backing rod.
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. We use a product suitable for the stone where the specification names one, and mask the edges carefully.
Facade sealing in Banbhaidh
Sealant around windows, doors and cladding panels stops rain reaching the wall behind. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. If you have patch repairs that keep failing and cladding panel joints that have opened up, we can help, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Banbhaidh tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In smaller places such as Banbhaidh, building work tends to be single schemes rather than big developments. The mastic still needs to suit exposed elevations and Scottish weather.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Your questions answered
Is Blar Mhor Industrial Estate, near Banbhaidh, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Banbhaidh and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Blar Mhor Industrial Estate included. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Belford Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters across the facade.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit before quoting.
What affects the price in Banbhaidh
What shapes the price:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Access and working height
- The size and state of each joint
- The total length or number of joints
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
What we need to price the job
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Any specification or named product
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For work around Banbhaidh, we aim for one trip, so photos, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- 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.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.

Why it’s worth doing now in Banbhaidh
Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Combine it with planned external works and you only arrange access once, saving a second set-up. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
What you get with us

Facades, frames and programmes in Banbhaidh
With the shore within about 3 miles, Banbhaidh counts as a coastal location. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. Building work in Banbhaidh comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004 and their technical handbooks, with warrants from the local authority verifier. The mastic follows the specification that goes with the warrant.
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Ben Nevis Hotel and Leisure Club, 1.4 miles south-east of Banbhaidh, normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Blar Mhor Industrial Estate, 0.8 miles south-east of Banbhaidh, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. Hospital estates such as Belford Hospital, 1.8 miles south of Banbhaidh, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
