When to bring in a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Greenfaulds
We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. Most enquiries involve gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels and draughts around frames and panels, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, coping and flashing joints and window and door perimeters. Most enquiries from Greenfaulds start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For a site around Greenfaulds, we plan the mastic in as few trips as the programme allows. Clear drawings, a programme and photographs let us bring the right sealants, primers and backing rod first time.
Work we carry out in North Lanarkshire comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

What we’re called out for in Greenfaulds
Not every failure is in the sealant: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. We tell you when the edges need repairing before resealing.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
For contractors at a school such as Greenfaulds High School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
Comparing quotes
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- How they’ll work around occupants
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
Mastic packages on Greenfaulds sites
The east of Scotland, where Greenfaulds is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and condensation on frames and panels can still hold up external mastic on winter mornings. We agree external dates with the site team and keep internal work ready. Building work in Greenfaulds comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004 and their technical handbooks, with warrants from the local authority verifier. The mastic package follows the approved specification.
On a campus such as University of the West of Scotland (3.2 miles west of Greenfaulds), new teaching buildings and residences are typically built and refurbished around the academic year. Further education sites such as New College Lanarkshire - Cumbernauld Campus (0.6 miles north-east of Greenfaulds) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break.

Questions we’re asked in Greenfaulds
Is Greenfaulds too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across every Scottish council area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Will you take on work at estates like Lenziemills Industrial Estate, close to Greenfaulds?
Yes. We cover Greenfaulds and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Lenziemills Industrial Estate. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
That depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. Fresh silicone won’t grip cured silicone, so the existing bead is removed entirely and the faces are cleaned before resealing. That is what makes the new joint last.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
What the job involves on each surface
Window and door perimeters
Perimeter joints move as frames expand and contract in the sun. The rod limits depth, leaving the bead able to flex without tearing.
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. We use a product suitable for the stone where the specification names one, with masked edges for a clean line.
What affects the price in Greenfaulds
Before we quote, we look at:
- Phasing around occupants
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What to include in your enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- When you need the work done
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Specification clauses that apply
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Greenfaulds. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
