Facade sealing for businesses in Kirkton of Skene

Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

After the work

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:

  • Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
  • Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
  • Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
  • Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints

Record the sealant type and date on the building file. It helps when matching repairs or planning the next reseal.

In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Older sealants can contain asbestos.

What sealant work can’t fix

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:

  • Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
  • Work on the window or framing system itself
  • Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing

If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we seal

  • Window and door perimeters
  • Shopfront frames
  • Stone and brick facade joints
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Coping and flashing joints

Why deal with it now?

Failed joints let in more than water: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. A new seal closes the gap for both. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Kirkton of Skene, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.

The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Why appoint us

  • One contact handling all your sites
  • CSCS-carded applicators

Kirkton of Skene: questions and answers

Will you take on work at estates like Westhill Industrial Estate, close to Kirkton of Skene?

Yes. Our area takes in Kirkton of Skene and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Westhill Industrial Estate included. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Is Kirkton of Skene too small for you to travel to?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

What do you charge?

We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.

Will rain stop the work?

Rain and frost can pause external sealing. We plan for weather and keep you updated throughout the job.

Is it okay to overlay old mastic?

No. Overlaying is a shortcut that peels away quickly. Our method is a full cut-out, cleaning, backing and a new bead.

How long will the new sealant last?

It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

When can you be on site?

We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.

Our process

We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. For a building near Kirkton of Skene, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.

  1. We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
  2. Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
  3. Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
  4. Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
  5. Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
  6. Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings
