Facade sealing in Letham, done properly
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. We work on cladding panel joints, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and window and door perimeters, and what we are called in for most is weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters and discoloured or dirty facade joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Letham from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Outside mastic in Scotland needs a dry, frost-clear joint, and in a place like Letham that means watching the forecast. We build some give into the plan and agree it with the site manager.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Facade sealing in Letham: the local picture
Scotland has its own building regulations, and in Letham warrants come from the local authority verifier. We seal to the specification that sits behind the warrant. Letham is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Cold, damp starts still stop external sealing on some days. We programme around it with the site team.
On a healthcare site such as Whitehills Hospital, 4.1 miles west of Letham, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.

What the job involves on each surface
Precast concrete panels
Precast arrises sometimes crumble or carry old residue. Faces are cleaned to sound concrete, and damaged edges are reported first.
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use, with masked edges for a clean line.
Honest limits
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
- Specialist high-level access methods
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Coping and flashing joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Shopfront frames
- Cladding panel joints
Common problems we fix in Letham
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.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
Sites around Letham get mastic sealed to the drawings and the programme, nothing improvised.
