About our facade sealing in Currie
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on offices, blocks and industrial units. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. We work on shopfront frames, cladding panel joints and coping and flashing joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are patch repairs that keep failing and perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away. Searching for sealant specialists in Currie? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
For a site around Currie, we plan the mastic in as few trips as the programme allows. Send drawings, photos and the programme so everything needed arrives on the first day.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Currie as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

New build and refits around Currie
Currie is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Frosty spells still affect external mastic dates. We agree external dates with the site team and keep internal work ready. Scotland has its own building regulations, and in Currie warrants come from the local authority verifier. Our job is to seal to that specification.
Hospital estates such as Craiglockhart Hydropathic, 3 miles to the north-east of Currie, 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. Projects at schools like Currie High School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Westside Plaza Shopping Centre, 1.6 miles north-east of Currie, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.
Currie is about 5 miles south-west of West Coates, in Edinburgh. Anywhere in EH14, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Currie is one of 174 places we cover in Edinburgh.
Work on facade joints is covered throughout EH14, for business premises of every kind. Among the streets we cover are Bryce Road, Palmer Road and Tweedie Lane, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. Nearby places we also cover include Curriehill (1 mile north-west), Juniper Green (1 mile north-east), Torphin (1 mile east), Balerno (1 mile south-west) and Baberton (1 mile north-east) for facade joints. Nearby towns on our patch include Edinburgh (5 miles north-east), Leith (8 miles north-east), Bonnington (7 miles north-east), Greenside (6 miles north-east), Broughton (6 miles north-east) and Bellevue (6 miles north-east).
Landmarks near Currie

How the job changes by surface
Render and coated surfaces
Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. We confirm the product with you before starting.
Window and door perimeters
Window and door perimeters make up most facade sealing work. A low-modulus, neutral-cure product suits most frame-to-wall joints.
Doing it in-house
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
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.

What else we do in Currie
Building owners, agents and FMs in Currie
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How a job runs
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Jobs near Currie are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Point out any areas we must not close

Is Currie too small for you to travel to?

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
Do you replace windows or glass?
No. We don’t install glazing systems, windows or glass. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
What will the job cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Do you take on small jobs?

Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
What we can’t put right

- Providing access systems for the work
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
