Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Westhill
We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. We handle the sealant joints that surround those elements: the frame-to-structure perimeter, panel-to-panel joints and window and door surrounds. Site teams most often ask us about unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and leaks at window and door perimeters, on window and door perimeters, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and shopfront frames. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Westhill is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
External sealing around Westhill depends on dry faces and the right temperature. A little flexibility in the programme lets external joints go in on suitable days.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Highland. Should something we installed fail, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll come back to it.

Surface by surface
Precast concrete panels
Precast arrises sometimes crumble or carry old residue. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair before sealing.
Render and coated surfaces
Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. The choice depends on the specification and finish.
What happens if it’s left?
Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Coordinating facade sealing with other external works avoids paying for access twice, which is often the biggest saving. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Westhill, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Work on the window or framing system itself
- Specialist high-level access methods
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Cladding panel joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Shopfront frames
- Coping and flashing joints
- Window and door perimeters
Westhill: questions and answers
Would you work within a site like Raigmore Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Could you schedule work at a campus like University of the Highlands and Islands for the vacation?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
How do we ask for 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 photographs and a postcode.
Do you provide access for facade work?
We agree access with the client at the start. Let us know what access is in place or planned, and we’ll price the work around it.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Building and refurbishing in Westhill
The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Westhill. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. Plenty of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Westhill. Hotel extensions and refits normally have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Beechwood Business Park, 1.1 miles west of Westhill, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. Work at a hotel such as Drumossie Hotel, 0.8 miles to the south of Westhill, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included. Projects at colleges like Inverness College UHI, 1 mile north-west of Westhill, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.

Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
Record the sealant type and date on the building file. It helps when matching repairs or planning the next reseal without guesswork.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. Sharing the access keeps the cost down.
On site: what to expect
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Westhill. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- 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.

- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
