How we handle facade sealing in Nether Blainslie
Managing agents and owners in Nether Blainslie ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. The approach doesn’t change with the size: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. Site teams most often ask us about staining on stone next to old sealant and sealant pulling away from frames or panels, on shopfront frames, stone and brick facade joints and coping and flashing joints. Most enquiries from Nether Blainslie 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 sealing around Nether Blainslie depends on dry faces and the right temperature. We build some give into the plan and agree it with the site manager.

Common questions from Nether Blainslie clients
What site paperwork comes with a job in Nether Blainslie?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Is a smaller place like Nether Blainslie outside your area?
Not at all. Nether Blainslie is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?
No. Overlaying is a shortcut that peels away quickly. We remove the failed sealant, clean the faces, set the depth and reseal.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit typically takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
What will the job cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, call 01277 525 020 or email us.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. We check the sealant joints and report what we find before quoting. Where the cause seems to be elsewhere, we’d rather tell you than reseal pointlessly.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Cladding panel joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Shopfront frames
Why deal with it now?
Failed joints let in more than water: draughts around frames add to heating costs and complaints. Resealing deals with the draught as well as the leak. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Nether Blainslie, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
Include facade joints in your planned maintenance inspections. Watch for splits, gaps at the edges, hardening and discolouration; record the locations.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Some older mastics contain it.
