Facade sealing in Pinwherry
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. Joint width needs to match how far the joint moves and how far the sealant can stretch, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear. Site teams most often ask us about weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and water coming in around window frames, across shopfront frames, stone and brick facade joints and window and door perimeters. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Pinwherry first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Outside mastic in Scotland needs a dry, frost-clear joint, and in a place like Pinwherry that means watching the forecast. A little flexibility in the programme lets external joints go in on suitable days.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Aftercare for building managers
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
Look at perimeter and panel joints as part of routine building checks. Watch for splits, gaps at the edges, hardening and discolouration; note where they appear.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and limits disruption.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For work around Pinwherry, we aim for one trip, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- Failed beads are removed in full and both faces cleaned back.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
Getting the site ready
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Point out any areas we must not close

Cost factors for facade joints
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Access and working height
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The postcode of the building
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

FAQs: Pinwherry
Will you fit the mastic around our build programme in Pinwherry?
Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Pinwherry?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you just add new sealant on top?
No. New sealant won’t hold on old sealant, so the old bead is cut away and the joint cleaned back to sound material. Nothing else gives a bond that lasts.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can you quote from photographs?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
Normally, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Pinwherry
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.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
