How the job changes by surface
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Housing associations and agents often manage many similar blocks. We quote building by building and work through them in turn.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Commercial buildings have mastic at shopfronts, entrances and external joints. A planned programme suits multi-building portfolios.
Why it’s worth doing now in Aberlemno
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows and occupiers notice. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Aberlemno, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Why clients in Aberlemno choose us
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship
- One contact handling all your sites

Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Common questions from Aberlemno clients
Which documents can you supply for work in Aberlemno?
We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Is Aberlemno too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across every Scottish council area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Do you need to see the site first?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Keeping the joints sound
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Damage at low level is the most common reason communal joints fail early.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. A programme can start with the worst buildings so spending is spread.
