About our facade sealing in Erbusaig
Installing framed glazing systems isn’t part of our work. We handle the sealant joints that surround those elements: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters, using sealants classified for facade or glazing use. We work on coping and flashing joints, window and door perimeters and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are damp patches beside frames after rain and failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames. Searching for sealant specialists in Erbusaig? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Sites near smaller places like Erbusaig can mean longer travel, so the mastic is planned with as few trips as the job allows. Clear drawings, a programme and photos let us bring the right sealants, primers and backing rod first time.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will arrange a return visit.

What the job involves on each surface
Brick and stone facades
On masonry, the sealant has to suit a porous, textured surface. We avoid acetoxy silicone, which can stain some natural stone, with primer where its maker specifies.
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod.

When to bring in a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Questions we’re asked in Erbusaig
Can you keep pace with our programme in Erbusaig?
Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Is a smaller place like Erbusaig outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you work on upper floors?
We agree access with the client at the start. Let us know what access is in place or planned, and we’ll price the work around it.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.
Can you fit around our working hours?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
Contractors’ notes for Erbusaig
Erbusaig sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. Scotland has its own building regulations, and in Erbusaig warrants come from the local authority verifier. We seal to the specification that sits behind the warrant.
School extensions, at buildings such as Lochalsh School, usually run to the summer holidays, mastic included. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Tingle Creek Hotel, which lies south-west of Erbusaig, typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
Erbusaig is in Highland. Looking for facade sealing in Erbusaig? We can help. Our Highland coverage takes in 256 places.

Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Ask the installer to reseal it properly.
Check older buildings for asbestos before disturbing old mastic. Older sealants can contain asbestos, and if it’s suspected, we stop until it has been tested.
When something else is needed
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.
