About our facade sealing in Reddingmuirhead
Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on offices, blocks and industrial units. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. If you have water coming in around window frames and sealant pulling away from frames or panels, we can help, on cladding panel joints, shopfront frames and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Reddingmuirhead tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Outside mastic in Scotland needs a dry, frost-clear joint, and in a place like Reddingmuirhead that means watching the forecast. We build some give into the plan and agree it with the site manager.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Sites and facades in and around Reddingmuirhead
Scotland has its own building regulations, and in Reddingmuirhead warrants come from the local authority verifier. Our job is to seal to that specification. The area within 2 miles of Reddingmuirhead holds a number of hotels. When hotels extend or refit, the work is normally squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
Hotels like Kelpies Hotel, 1.3 miles to the north-east of Reddingmuirhead, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Redding Industrial Estate, less than half a mile north-west of Reddingmuirhead, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. For contractors at a college like SPS College (0.5 miles east of Reddingmuirhead), perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays.

What we can’t put right
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Work on the window or framing system itself
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Where we can, we combine work around Reddingmuirhead with other jobs nearby. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- First we review photos, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
What we need from you
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Advice
Common questions from Reddingmuirhead clients
Can work at a site such as SPS College fit around teaching?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is a hospital such as Falkirk Community Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.

Cost factors for facade joints
To price the job, we consider:
- How accessible the joints are
- The size and state of each joint
- The total length or number of joints
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- The product your specification calls for
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
After heavy weather, check vulnerable elevations for signs of water inside. An early report usually means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.
Use each reseal to correct the joint: the right width, backing rod and a sealant with enough movement capability. Repeating a faulty detail just repeats the failure.
When to bring in a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
