Facade sealing in Whiteface
We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Failed perimeter sealant is a frequent cause, but not always. We’ll tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, cladding panel joints and shopfront frames, and what we’re called in for most is weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters and facade joints cracked through the middle. For commercial sealant work in Whiteface, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Sites near smaller places like Whiteface can mean longer travel, so the mastic is planned with as few trips as the job allows. Clear drawings, a programme and photos let us bring the right sealants, primers and backing rod first time.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Whiteface as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

From enquiry to sign-off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work usually takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Whiteface is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- 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.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Maintenance after handover
For the best life from the joints:
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
Record the sealant type and date on the building file. Future work can then match the product and colour.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Some older mastics contain it.

What else we do in Whiteface
Whiteface: questions and answers
Can you work to our programme on a site in or near Whiteface?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we’ll plan the mastic to suit the stages. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Is Whiteface too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Whiteface are covered as much as the big towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit before quoting.
Do you replace windows or glass?
No. That work needs a glazing specialist. What we seal are the joints around frames and panels on commercial buildings.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
When to call us in Whiteface
The wrong product causes its share of trouble: acetoxy-cure silicone may mark stone or corrode certain metals, and an interior product won’t last outdoors. Most external joints call for a neutral-cure, facade-grade sealant.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
Sites around Whiteface get mastic sealed to the drawings and the programme, nothing improvised.
Questions to ask before you book
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Their public liability cover
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- How they’ll work around occupants
What happens if it’s left?
A few metres of new sealant compare well with replacing ceilings, linings or damaged stock. Leaks travel along the structure, often turning up far from the joint. Around smaller places like Whiteface, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Why us?
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
- Standard and matched colours in many product ranges
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
