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 early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Share access with other external trades
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
Following storms, look inside for damp or staining near frames. An early report usually means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. One set-up for several trades saves money and limits disruption.
Contractors’ notes for Gartly
Being in the east of Scotland, Gartly gets less rain than the west coast. Frosty spells still affect external mastic dates. External dates keep a little give. Scotland has its own building regulations, and in Gartly warrants come from the local authority verifier. The mastic follows the specification that goes with the warrant.
Older buildings in the area around Gartly, such as Leith Hall, 2 miles to the south-east of Gartly, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.

From enquiry to sign-off
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Gartly is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- 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.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Preparing the site
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Move anything stored against the joints
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

Do you need facade sealing in Gartly?
Sometimes the substrate is the problem: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. We tell you when the edges need repairing before resealing.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
Extensions at sites like Jubilee Hospital (4.4 miles north of Gartly) normally sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.

What the job involves on each surface
Coping and flashing joints
Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.
Cladding panel joints
Panel joints on cladding and rainscreen systems take movement every day. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface.
Work for main contractors and building owners
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Common questions from Gartly clients
Can you keep pace with our programme in Gartly?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we will plan the mastic to suit the stages. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Would you work within a site like Jubilee Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. Send photos or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
Can you work on upper floors?
That comes down to the access arranged for the job. When you give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over, describe the access.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. We look at the perimeter sealant and tell you whether it has failed. Where the cause seems to be elsewhere, we’d rather tell you than reseal pointlessly.
