When it isn’t the sealant
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Shopfront frames
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Window and door perimeters
Facade sealing in Tulloch, done properly
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site, and we’ll fit the work around it. We work on cladding panel joints, shopfront frames and stone and brick facade joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and previous reseals run over old sealant. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Tulloch tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
For a site around Tulloch, we plan the mastic in as few trips as the programme allows. Clear drawings, a programme and photos let us bring the right sealants, primers and backing rod first time.
Work we carry out in Perth and Kinross comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will come back to it.

Do you need facade sealing in Tulloch?
Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. UV and weather harden the sealant until it can’t stretch with the building.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
School extensions, at buildings such as Bertha Park High School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The size and state of each joint
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Sending details for a quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The type of building and who uses it
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Access details, including height
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building, and we clear our waste as we work. For work around Tulloch, we aim for one trip, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- 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.
Preparing the site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

Different surfaces, different methods
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. Faces are cleaned to sound concrete, and damaged edges are reported.
Window and door perimeters
Aluminium, PVC-U and timber frames each have their own preparation needs. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it for that substrate.
Aftercare for building managers
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
Following storms, look inside for damp or staining near frames. Catching a new leak early keeps the repair small.
Use each reseal to correct the joint: correct depth, proper backing and a sealant that can take the movement. Repeating a faulty detail just repeats the failure.
Questions about Tulloch
Is Tulloch too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Tulloch are covered as much as the big towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you work at a site such as Inveralmond Business Centre, by Tulloch?
Yes. Our area takes in Tulloch and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Inveralmond Business Centre included. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Will rain stop the work?
Rain and frost can pause external sealing. We plan for weather and keep you updated throughout the job.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
Most facade and window perimeter joints take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone. Hybrid or MS polymer, polyurethane and polysulphide sealants suit others, depending on the substrate and the specification.
Do you provide access for facade work?
We agree access with the client at the start. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you’re arranging and any site restrictions.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

Scotland has its own building regulations, and in Tulloch warrants come from the local authority verifier. The mastic follows the specification that goes with the warrant.
