Owners, agents and contractors
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
How we handle facade sealing in Lintmill
External joints face UV, rain, temperature swings and building movement all year. 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. We work on shopfront frames, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and coping and flashing joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and staining on stone next to old sealant. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Lintmill? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Sites near smaller places like Lintmill can mean longer travel, so the mastic is planned with as few trips as the job allows. Send drawings, photos and the programme so everything needed arrives on the first day.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Leave it or put it right?
Topping up a failed joint normally buys very little time. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Lintmill, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Aftercare for building managers
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
Following storms, look inside for damp or staining near frames. Catching a new leak early keeps the repair small.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down.
New build and refits around Lintmill
Lintmill is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal exposure means perimeter and cladding joints work harder than on an inland job, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. Lintmill is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Winter mornings can still bring frost and condensation on steel and glass. External dates keep a little give.
Hotels like Grant Arms Hotel, 1 mile north of Lintmill, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.
Lintmill is about 6 miles east of Buckie, in Moray. We cover commercial sites throughout Lintmill, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Our Moray coverage takes in 59 places, large and small. Sites around Aberdeen have their own page, about 44 miles away.
If you need facade sealing in AB56, the process matches everywhere else we work: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. We also cover Cullen (1 mile north), Sandend (2 miles east), Portknockie (3 miles north-west), Fordyce (3 miles east) and Findochty (4 miles north-west) for facade joints. Bigger towns within reach include Buckie (6 miles west), Keith (11 miles south-west), Fochabers (11 miles south-west), Ianstown (5 miles west), Lhanbryde (15 miles west) and Portessie (5 miles west).

Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Jobs near Lintmill are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- Failed beads are removed in full.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Preparing the site
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Questions we’re asked in Lintmill
Is Lintmill too far out for you?
No. Places such as Lintmill are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Would you work within a site like Campbell Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can you send site paperwork?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
How is access to upper-level joints handled?
We agree access with the client at the start. Let us know what access is in place or planned.
Will you check whether the sealant is causing the leak?
Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all.
Common problems we fix in Lintmill
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead.
Look out for the following:
- Water coming in around window frames
- Patch repairs that keep failing
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
Hospital estates such as Campbell Hospital, 4.2 miles east of Lintmill, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
What to look for in a quote
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?

- Their approach to joint depth and backing
Cost factors for facade joints
To price the job, we consider:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Working within restricted access windows
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
