Facade sealing in Strichen
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. The enquiries we see most involve draughts around frames and panels and gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels, on window and door perimeters, shopfront frames and stone and brick facade joints. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Strichen, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In smaller places such as Strichen, 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 with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Leave it or put it right?
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds and avoids repeat call-outs. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

Doing it in-house
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Your questions answered
Can you keep pace with our programme in Strichen?
Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Maud Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes. Workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months on every job.
How long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
How long before the joints can be used?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.
Sites and facades in and around Strichen
The east of Scotland, where Strichen is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and condensation on frames and panels can still hold up external mastic on winter mornings. External mastic is planned with the site manager for workable conditions. In Strichen, as across Scotland, building warrants are issued by the local authority verifier under the Scottish regulations. The mastic follows the specification that goes with the warrant.
On any site in or around Strichen, the mastic follows the specification and the programme. Extensions at sites like Maud Hospital, 4.9 miles south of Strichen, normally sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.

Coping and flashing joints
Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. These joints take full exposure to weather.
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. We use a product suitable for the stone where the specification names one, with masked edges for a clean line.
Quoting for work in Strichen
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Access and working height
- How much existing material needs removing
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
