Site staff or a sealant specialist?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. 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.
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.
About our facade sealing in Fetterangus
External sealing depends on the weather more than most trades. Joints have to be dry and the air and surface temperature within the product’s range, and cold, damp starts can delay work. We plan for that and keep you updated. Most enquiries involve staining on stone next to old sealant and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, across perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, window and door perimeters and shopfront frames. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Fetterangus, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In smaller places such as Fetterangus, building work tends to be single schemes rather than big developments. The mastic still needs to suit exposed elevations and Scottish weather.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Other services in Fetterangus
For managing agents and facilities managers
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Fetterangus can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Aberdeenshire.
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
When to call us in Fetterangus
When the sealant tears down its centre, it has normally been asked to move more than it can. The joint may be too narrow, the bead too thin or the sealant the wrong movement class.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Water coming in around window frames
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
On a healthcare site such as Maud Hospital, 4.3 miles to the south-west of Fetterangus, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.
What your quote should include
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
How the quote is worked out
Before we quote, we look at:
- The total length or number of joints
- Phasing around occupants
- Any access equipment needed
- How much existing material needs removing
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Specification clauses that apply
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
New build and refits around Fetterangus
In Fetterangus, as across Scotland, building warrants are issued by the local authority verifier under the Scottish regulations. Our job is to seal to that specification. The east of Scotland, where Fetterangus is, gets less rain than the west. Frosty spells still affect external mastic dates. We agree external dates with the site team and keep internal work ready.
When a school such as Peterhead Academy is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

Common questions from Fetterangus clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Maud Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Can the mastic package for our job in Fetterangus follow the site programme?
Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
How much does the work cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, phone 01277 525 020 or email us with a description of the work.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
Most facade and window perimeter joints take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead, as the specification or substrate requires.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. Glazing, windows and glass replacement aren’t part of our work. We seal the joints around them, such as perimeter joints where frames meet the structure.
Leave it or put it right?
Every shower drives water through a split perimeter bead. Behind the frame, that can mean damp plaster, stained ceilings, corroded fixings and damaged insulation. Resealing now costs less than repairing interiors later. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
