Facade sealing in Inverinate
Access is part of every facade job, and we plan it with you before quoting. Let us know what access exists or is planned, and any site rules we need to work around, and we’ll fit the work around it. We work on cladding panel joints, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and shopfront frames, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and leaks at window and door perimeters. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Inverinate first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Sites near smaller places like Inverinate 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.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Surface by surface
Brick and stone facades
On masonry, the sealant has to suit a porous, textured surface. Neutral-cure products are used because acetoxy types can mark some stone.
Cladding panel joints
On sealed panel systems, every joint keeps water out. Failed runs are cut out and rebuilt end to end with backing and a facade-grade sealant.
How a job runs
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. For work around Inverinate, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- The existing bead comes out in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Advice
When to call us in Inverinate
A frequent fault is a bead stuck to the joint’s rear face as well as its sides. With no backing, the sealant is restrained and rips when the facade moves.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
For a contractor at a hotel such as Kintail Lodge Hotel, 1.1 miles south-east of Inverinate, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.
What your quote should include
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Proof of insurance
- Who will actually carry out the work
- The named product and why it was chosen

Common questions from Inverinate clients
Is Inverinate too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Inverinate are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can being near the sea in Inverinate affect the sealant we need?
It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Will rain stop the work?
Year-round work is possible as long as joints are dry and temperatures suit the product. Frost and condensation on glass and steel are common on winter mornings.
What hours do you work?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll plan around them. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
Can you just add new sealant on top?
No. Overlaying is a shortcut that peels away quickly. We remove the failed sealant, clean the faces, set the depth and reseal.
Do you install glazing systems?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. What we seal are the joints around frames and panels on commercial buildings.
Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Coping and flashing joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding panel joints
- Shopfront frames
