Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Loans of Tullich
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in.

Site teams most often ask us about draughts around frames and panels and weathered facade joints that have lost their grip, across perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, window and door perimeters and shopfront frames. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Loans of Tullich is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Facade sealing around Loans of Tullich: what changes locally
Loans of Tullich is within about 2 miles of the coast. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. Projects in Loans of Tullich follow Scotland’s building regulations, with the local authority acting as verifier. The mastic follows the specification that goes with the warrant.
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Fearn Hotel, which lies north-west of Loans of Tullich, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.

FAQs: Loans of Tullich
Is Loans of Tullich too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Does a coastal location like Loans of Tullich affect which sealant is used?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months on every job.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
Can you work on upper floors?
That comes down to the access arranged for the job. Share what access exists or is planned when you send details.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
What the job involves on each surface
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, as the specification sets out.
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. A sealant of the right movement class goes in over backing rod.
Signs you need facade sealing in Loans of Tullich
When sealant lets go of a frame or panel, the cause is often the preparation. Dust, old sealant residue, damp or a missing primer stop it bonding properly, and movement soon pulls it away.
Look out for the following:
- Water coming in around window frames
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
When units on a site such as Cadboll Industrial Estate, 1.3 miles to the north-east of Loans of Tullich, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

What happens if it’s left?

Looking after the joints
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
Look at perimeter and panel joints as part of routine building checks. Signs to look for are cracking, edges lifting, chalking and stiffness.
Use each reseal to correct the joint: correct depth, proper backing and a sealant that can take the movement. Repeating a faulty detail just repeats the failure.
