Owners, agents and contractors
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Staxigoe can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Facade sealing in Staxigoe
Installing framed glazing systems isn’t part of our work. What we seal are the joints around them: the frame-to-structure perimeter, panel-to-panel joints and window and door surrounds with products suited to facade or glazing perimeter joints. We work on window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and stone and brick facade joints, and what we’re called in for most is perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and cladding panel joints that have opened up. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Staxigoe is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In smaller places such as Staxigoe, building work tends to be single schemes rather than big developments. The mastic still needs to suit exposed elevations and Scottish weather.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Building and refurbishing in Staxigoe
Staxigoe sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. Coastal exposure means perimeter and cladding joints work harder than on an inland job, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. Being in the east of Scotland, Staxigoe gets less rain than the west coast. Winter mornings can still bring frost and condensation on steel and glass. External mastic is planned with the site manager for workable conditions.
New wings at hospitals like Caithness General Hospital (to the south-west of Staxigoe) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. For contractors at a school such as Wick High School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
Staxigoe is about 19 miles south-east of Thurso, in Highland. Looking for facade sealing in Staxigoe? We can help, as we do across Highland. Our Highland coverage takes in 256 places.

Questions we’re asked in Staxigoe
Can being near the sea in Staxigoe affect the sealant we need?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Staxigoe, such as Lochshell Business Park?
Yes, sites like Lochshell Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Staxigoe. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
Will you come and look before quoting?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
How do I request a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
Most facade and window perimeter joints take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead.
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes. It runs for twelve months and covers how we prepared and sealed the joints, though not damage or work by other trades.
What affects the price in Staxigoe
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Location, for remote and island sites
- How much existing material needs removing
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Access details, including height
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- When you need the work done
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to call 01277 525 020 or email us.
How the job changes by surface
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod with primer where the product requires it.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. Our work is that perimeter joint.
Do you need facade sealing in Staxigoe?
A frequent fault is a bead stuck to the joint’s rear face as well as its sides. With no backing, the sealant is restrained.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Water coming in around window frames
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Patch repairs that keep failing
Hotels like Nethercliffe Hotel (to the south-west of Staxigoe) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.

On site: what to expect
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Where we can, we combine work around Staxigoe with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
Ask for a quote
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Advice
Why deal with it now?
Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. Behind the frame, that can mean damp plaster, stained ceilings, corroded fixings and damaged insulation. 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 Staxigoe. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
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.
