About our facade sealing in Woodilee Village
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day, and they wear out over time. How long a joint lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure, the product and how well it was installed. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. If you have hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and failed sealant on precast panel joints, we can put it right. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Woodilee Village? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
Construction around smaller Scottish places like Woodilee Village is often one-off schemes: a school, a health centre, a hotel extension or a few houses. Exposed elevations in Scotland put facade and perimeter joints to work from day one, so the sealant choice matters.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. 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 Woodilee Village. We’ll confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
What we need from you
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Woodilee Village: questions and answers
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Woodilee Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of the West of Scotland?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Can you just add new sealant on top?
No. New sealant won’t hold on old sealant, so the old bead is cut away. Nothing else gives a bond that lasts.
When can the area be used after sealing?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Do you install glazing systems?
No. We don’t install glazing systems, windows or glass. We seal the joints around them, such as perimeter joints where frames meet the structure.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
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: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Looking after the joints
For the best life from the joints:
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
Anything drilled through a facade joint breaks the seal. Ask the installer to reseal it properly using a matching sealant.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Some older mastics contain it.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
If you are not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Why act early in Woodilee Village
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Leaks travel along the structure, so the real damage is often some distance away. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Woodilee Village before they leak.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

Commercial clients in Woodilee Village
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Woodilee Village can form part of a wider programme.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Common problems we fix in Woodilee Village
Cohesive failure, a split through the middle of the bead, points to an over-stretched joint. Too thin a bead, too narrow a joint or a product with the wrong movement class are common reasons.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
- Water coming in around window frames
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as The Broadcroft Hotel, which lies north-west of Woodilee Village, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
