About our facade sealing in Bridge of Orchy
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. The sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures inside the maker’s limits. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. If you’re dealing with unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and cladding panel joints that have opened up, we can help. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Bridge of Orchy first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Sites near smaller places like Bridge of Orchy can mean longer travel, so the mastic is planned with as few trips as the job allows. Send drawings, photographs and the programme so everything needed arrives on the first day.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we will come back to it.

How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:

- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Phasing around occupants
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
What we need to price the job
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- When you need the work done
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- How the joints are reached, and at what height

Why act early in Bridge of Orchy
Failed joints let in more than water: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. A new seal closes the gap for both. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Bridge of Orchy. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.

Related advice
When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Questions we are asked in Bridge of Orchy
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Bridge of Orchy?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Is Bridge of Orchy off your patch?
No. Places such as Bridge of Orchy are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
The product follows the joint’s movement, the surfaces and the specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. Fresh silicone won’t grip cured silicone, so the existing bead is removed entirely and the joint cleaned back to sound material. Nothing else gives a bond that lasts.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
Different surfaces, different methods
Render and coated surfaces
Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. We confirm the product with you before starting.
Cladding panel joints
Panel joints on cladding and rainscreen systems take movement every day. The sealant has to match the movement and the panel finish, often a low-modulus silicone or hybrid.
Work for main contractors and building owners
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
