Do you need facade sealing in Grantown-on-Spey?
A frequent fault is a bead stuck to the joint’s rear face as well as its sides. Without rod or bond-breaker tape, the bead is held back.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Water coming in around window frames
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Draughts around frames and panels
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
New wings at hospitals like Ian Charles Hospital (to the north-east of Grantown-on-Spey) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.

Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Grantown-on-Spey
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day, so they don’t last indefinitely. How long a joint lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure, the product and how well it was installed. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. If you are dealing with sealant pulling away from frames or panels and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, we can put it right, on cladding panel joints, shopfront frames and coping and flashing joints alike.

Why it’s worth doing now in Grantown-on-Spey
Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Coordinating facade sealing with other external works avoids paying for access twice, which is often the biggest saving. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, so it’s worth renewing joints around Grantown-on-Spey before they leak.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Our process
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Grantown-on-Spey. We will 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.
- 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.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Preparing the site
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
