Our process
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 a building near Roberton, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Arrange parking or a loading space

Facade sealing in Roberton, done properly
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear with the ratio the sealant maker recommends, often around 2:1. Site teams most often ask us about failed sealant on precast panel joints and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, on cladding panel joints, shopfront frames and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Whoever orders the work in Roberton, the brief is normally the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In smaller places such as Roberton, building work tends to be single schemes rather than big developments. Exposed elevations in Scotland put facade and perimeter joints to work from day one, so the sealant choice matters.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

FAQs: Roberton
Is a smaller place like Roberton outside your area?
No. Places such as Roberton are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you keep pace with our programme in Roberton?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we will plan the mastic to suit the stages. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Will you quote for a small job?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
Will you check whether the sealant is causing the leak?
Yes. We check the sealant joints and report what we find as part of pricing. Where the cause seems to be elsewhere, we’d rather tell you than reseal pointlessly.
Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?
For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register, so ask for it before we start. If asbestos is suspected, work stops until it is tested.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
Why deal with it now?
Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Roberton. Send photos and we’ll quote for everything together.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Render and coated surfaces
Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. We confirm the product with you before starting.
Cladding panel joints
Panel joints on cladding and rainscreen systems take movement every day. The sealant has to match the movement and the panel finish, as the specification sets out.
When something else is needed
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work in Roberton
- Shopfront frames
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Cladding panel joints
- Coping and flashing joints
Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed.
Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. A few metres resealed promptly can stop water damage spreading.
Signs you need facade sealing in Roberton
Sun, rain and temperature swings wear facade sealant down over the years. The bead hardens, chalks on the surface and loses the flexibility to follow the joint.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
On any site in or around Roberton, the mastic follows the specification and the programme.
Questions to ask before you book
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
