Facade sealing for Lochearnhead sites
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Owners, agents and contractors
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Facade sealing in Lochearnhead, done properly
External joints face UV, rain, temperature swings and building movement all year, and they wear out over time. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. If you have old perimeter mastic that has dried out and weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters, we can put it right, on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and cladding panel joints alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Lochearnhead, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Sites near smaller places like Lochearnhead can mean longer travel, so the mastic is planned with as few trips as the job allows. Send drawings, photographs and the programme so everything needed arrives on the first day.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Lochearnhead is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- First we review photos, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Preparing the site
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Every shower drives water through a split perimeter bead. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing now costs less than repairing interiors later. For buildings near Lochearnhead, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photographs and we will quote for everything together.
A quote for facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.

How the job changes by surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
These frame-to-structure joints take a lot of movement and weather. We cut them out, prepare both faces and reseal to the specification with a product suited to glazing perimeters.
Window and door perimeters
Frame materials vary, and so does the preparation. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it for that substrate.
Questions about Lochearnhead
Is Lochearnhead off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Do you take on small jobs?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.

Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.

What else we do in Lochearnhead
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Common problems we fix in Lochearnhead
A frequent fault is a bead stuck to the joint’s rear face as well as its sides. Without rod or bond-breaker tape, the bead is held back.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
- Patch repairs that keep failing
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
On any site in or around Lochearnhead, the mastic follows the specification and the programme.
