Common questions from Crookedholm clients
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Ayrshire College - Townholm Campus?
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.
Is Crookedholm too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Crookedholm is within our area. We work across every Scottish council area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What do you charge?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote.
Do you replace windows or glass?
No. Glazing, windows and glass replacement aren’t part of our work. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
Is old mastic on our building likely to contain asbestos?
For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register, so ask for it before we start. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.
Can you send site paperwork?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How we handle facade sealing in Crookedholm
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 remove failed sealant and install a new bead chosen for the joint and how far it moves. The enquiries we see most involve patch repairs that keep failing and gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels, on shopfront frames, coping and flashing joints and stone and brick facade joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Crookedholm first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Sites near smaller places like Crookedholm 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.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Doing it in-house
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.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

What the job involves on each surface
Coping and flashing joints
Sometimes the coping or flashing itself has failed. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. We seal those perimeter joints, not the framing or glazing itself.
Quoting for work in Crookedholm
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- The product specified
- How much existing material needs removing
- Distance, for remote addresses

Before you send an enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
What we are called out for in Crookedholm
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, so the new bead peels away within a season or two.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Water coming in around window frames
Extensions at sites like Kirklandside Hospital, 0.9 miles to the south-west of Crookedholm, usually sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.
