About our facade sealing in Montrose
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. The sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures inside the maker’s limits. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. Site teams most often ask us about gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, across cladding panel joints, stone and brick facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Most enquiries from Montrose start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
External sealant on a Scottish site depends on the weather, and Montrose is no exception: joints must be dry and above the product’s minimum temperature. We agree the plan with the site team and adjust as the forecast changes, with internal sealant filling the rest.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

On site: what to expect
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. In a Scottish town such as Montrose, outside work is planned around the weather and inside work around the occupants. Photos or drawings let us give a fixed quote and a realistic plan.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Preparing the site
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Common questions from Montrose clients
Can you work to our programme on a site in or near Montrose?
Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Is Broomfield Industrial Estate, near Montrose, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Montrose and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Broomfield Industrial Estate included. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
Is colour matching possible?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
What we can’t put right
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.

How the quote is worked out
Before we quote, we look at:
- The product specified
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us.
Contractors’ notes for Montrose
Montrose is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal exposure means perimeter and cladding joints work harder than on an inland job, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. Montrose has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
When a school such as Montrose Academy is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. When units on a site such as Broomfield Industrial Estate, 0.9 miles north of Montrose, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Star Hotel (under half a mile south of Montrose), normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
Montrose is about 26 miles north-east of Dundee, in Angus. We cover Montrose, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. Montrose is one of 65 places we cover in Angus. Sites around Dundee have their own page, roughly 26 miles from Montrose.
Commercial sites across DD10 are covered for facade joints. Among the streets we cover are Market Street, High Street and Murray Lane. With the A92 and A935 nearby, Montrose is straightforward for us to reach. We also cover Ferryden (1 mile south), Kirkton of Craig (2 miles south), Hillside (2 miles north), Craigo (4 miles north-west) and St Cyrus (4 miles north-east) for facade joints. A short drive away, we cover Arbroath (12 miles south-west), Brechin (7 miles west), Letham (13 miles south-west), Edzell (10 miles north-west) and Friockheim (9 miles south-west). Among the larger centres in Angus is Montrose, and we take on facade joints for its commercial and public buildings.
Around Montrose
Around Montrose, our work takes us to commercial buildings near Royal Arch Bar and the streets around them. There’s a railway station in Montrose itself: Montrose station. Well-known places in the area include Montrose Castle (0.5 miles south-west) and William Lamb Sculpture Studio (less than half a mile south). Green spaces nearby include Montrose Basin and Duns Dish.
What else we do in Montrose
Work for main contractors and building owners
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Aftercare for building managers
For the best life from the joints:
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
Following storms, look inside for damp or staining near frames. An early report usually means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.
Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Inspect regularly and reseal sections as they start to fail instead of after the damage.
Leave it or put it right?
The longer a failed joint is left, the more the substrate suffers: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Acting at the first sign of splitting keeps the fix simple. Buildings in towns like Montrose often have joints of similar age across a whole building or estate. One programme for all of them saves time.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
