Mastic sealing in North Ayrshire: how it works
We work for building owners, landlords with commercial or block portfolios, managing agents and housing associations. Many prefer a planned programme to one-off visits, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. The enquiries we see most involve brittle perimeter mastic across a building and mastic failing across several blocks on an estate, across external wall and movement joints, shopfronts below residential blocks and communal kitchens and washrooms.
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself usually takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.

For owners and agents in North Ayrshire
Portfolio owners and agents in North Ayrshire can bring buildings in places such as Irvine, Kilwinning and Saltcoats under one programme and one quote. We work to your notice and access plan, one building at a time.
Work in North Ayrshire comes under Scotland’s own building standards and technical handbooks. Our part is sealing to the specification, whatever the building. North Ayrshire includes coastal places, where facades, frames and external slabs take more weather than inland. We take that exposure into account when choosing the product.
Irvine: Historic properties like Montgreenan, 3.2 miles to the north of Irvine, show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone. For a school such as Greenwood Academy, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.
Why deal with it now?
Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. A planned programme treats each building once, under a single quote and a single programme.
Comparing quotes
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
Maintenance after handover
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Knocks cause many early failures in communal areas.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.
Quoting for work in North Ayrshire
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- The product specified
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Location, for remote and island sites
- How accessible the joints are
A quote for mastic joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- When you need the work done
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The postcode of the building
To get a fixed quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the site address and an outline of the work. Our quote form is another easy route.
When something else is needed
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
Work for main contractors and building owners
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. North Ayrshire can form part of a wider programme.
FAQs: North Ayrshire
Can you work to our specification?

Is North Ayrshire in your area?
Yes. North Ayrshire is in our area. For a quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
How long before the joints can be used?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?
Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
Yes, block and estate work is a core part of what we do. Buildings are scheduled in turn so you can plan around it.
