Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Facade sealing in Drumnadrochit, done properly
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: cut out, clean, back, prime where needed and seal. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. Site teams most often ask us about perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and previous reseals run over old sealant, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, stone and brick facade joints and shopfront frames. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Drumnadrochit, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In smaller places such as Drumnadrochit, building work tends to be single schemes rather than big developments. Exposed elevations in Scotland put facade and perimeter joints to work from day one, so the sealant choice matters.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle

Building and refurbishing in Drumnadrochit
Projects in Drumnadrochit follow Scotland’s building regulations, with the local authority acting as verifier. Our job is to seal to that specification. Several hotels sit less than 2 miles from Drumnadrochit. When hotels extend or refit, the work is typically squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
Hotels like Benleva Hotel (to the east of Drumnadrochit) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor. For contractors at a school such as Glen Urquhart High School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Older buildings in the area around Drumnadrochit, such as Boleskine House (4.6 miles south of Drumnadrochit), need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.
Drumnadrochit is about 13 miles south-west of Inverness, in Highland. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Drumnadrochit use us for work on facade joints, as part of our coverage of Highland. We work across 256 places in Highland.
We cover the IV63 postcode districts. If your site is on Old School Court, Kilmore Road and Craigmonie Road or close by, send details and we’ll quote for facade joints. Close to Drumnadrochit, our area also takes in Lewiston (1 mile south), Torness (4 miles east), Gorthleck (6 miles south), Dores (7 miles north-east) and Kiltarlity (8 miles north). Bigger towns within reach include Inverness (13 miles north-east), Merkinch (14 miles north-east), Hilton (13 miles north-east), Crown (14 miles north-east), Millburn (14 miles north-east) and Muir of Ord (13 miles north). Remote and island addresses take more planning, from travel and ferries to the weather, so give the site location in your enquiry.

Questions we’re asked in Drumnadrochit
Can the mastic package for our job in Drumnadrochit follow the site programme?
Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is Drumnadrochit off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
Do you install glazing systems?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters across the facade.
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. If a joint fails because of how we installed it, we come back and put it right.
Do you provide access for facade work?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. Share what access exists or is planned when you send details, and we’ll agree the approach together.
Can the building stay open while you work?
In the majority of cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
How the quote is worked out
Before we quote, we look at:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation

- Quantities, in metres or numbers

A quote for facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.

On site: what to expect
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Drumnadrochit. We’ll confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- 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.
Before we start on site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Advice
Why act early in Drumnadrochit
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. Around smaller places like Drumnadrochit, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
