About our facade sealing in Pittulie

Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. Joints have to be dry and the air and surface temperature within the product’s range, and cold, damp starts can delay work. We plan for that and keep you updated. If you have weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters and new sealant peeling off old mastic, we can help. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Pittulie is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Sites near smaller places like Pittulie 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.

We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Aftercare for building managers

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:

  • Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
  • Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
  • Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
  • Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle

Let the new sealant cure before washing the facade or windows near it. Keep high-pressure jets and strong chemicals away from new sealant, so brief your window cleaners.

Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and limits disruption.

On site: what to expect

On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, with the work itself typically taking anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. For a building near Pittulie, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.

  1. Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
  2. Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
  3. We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
  4. Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
  5. Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
  6. We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Point out any areas we must not close

Should maintenance staff do it?

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

When something else is needed

Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:

  • Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
  • Damaged frames that need replacing
  • Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client

If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

  • Stone and brick facade joints
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Shopfront frames
  • Coping and flashing joints
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Window and door perimeters

Is a smaller place like Pittulie outside your area?

Common problems we fix in Pittulie

Three-sided adhesion is a classic installation fault. Without rod or bond-breaker tape, the bead is held back and tears as the joint moves.

Things that normally lead to an enquiry:

  • Failed sealant on precast panel joints
  • Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
  • Patch repairs that keep failing
  • Staining on stone next to old sealant

School extensions, at buildings such as Fraserburgh Academy, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included.

What to look for in a quote

  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • What site paperwork they can supply
  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • Proof of insurance

How to choose a sealant contractor

Mastic packages on Pittulie sites

Pittulie is within about 1 mile of the coast. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. In Pittulie, as across Scotland, building warrants are issued by the local authority verifier under the Scottish regulations. Our job is to seal to that specification.

Further education sites such as North East Scotland College - Fraserburgh Campus (1.8 miles south-east of Pittulie) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Kessock Road Industrial Estate, which lies south-east of Pittulie, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

Pittulie is about 2 miles north-west of Fraserburgh, in Aberdeenshire. Our applicators travel to Pittulie for work on facade joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area.
