Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Stratherrick
Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, though that isn’t the only cause. We’ll tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. We work on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and coping and flashing joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are staining on stone next to old sealant and failed sealant on precast panel joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Stratherrick from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Sites near smaller places like Stratherrick can mean longer travel, so the mastic is planned with as few trips as the job allows. Clear drawings, a programme and photographs let us bring the right sealants, primers and backing rod first time.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Common problems we fix in Stratherrick
When the sealant tears down its centre, it has typically been asked to move more than it can. The joint may be too narrow, the bead too thin or the sealant the wrong movement class.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Water coming in around window frames
- Draughts around frames and panels
For a contractor at a hotel such as Whitebridge Hotel, which lies north-east of Stratherrick, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.

When to bring in a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
How a job runs
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Where we can, we combine work around Stratherrick with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- The existing bead comes out in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- 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.
Before we start on site
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Move anything stored against the joints

Questions we’re asked in Stratherrick
Is Stratherrick off your patch?
No. Places such as Stratherrick 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.
Which documents can you supply for work in Stratherrick?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
How do you choose the sealant?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
How do we ask for a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Why deal with it now?
Failed joints let in more than water: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. Resealing deals with the draught as well as the leak. For buildings near Stratherrick, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photos and we will quote for everything together.
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
