Mastic sealing in Perth and Kinross: how it works

We diagnose before we prescribe: what has failed, what caused it and whether new sealant will actually solve it. Failed mastic is stripped, the faces taken back to sound material, primed where the manufacturer specifies and resealed, with backing rod setting the depth where it’s needed. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and balcony and threshold joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are open joints in brickwork or panels and repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings.

We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact.

A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
Joints are resealed and tooled.
We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.

Around Perth

In Perth, that means premises near Public House, St John's Academy and Perth High School and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Perth station, roughly 0.7 miles south-east. Nearby you’ll also find Murray Royal Hospital (1.2 miles east) and Balhousie Castle (0.6 miles north-east). Not far away are St Magdalene's Hill.

Blocks and managed buildings across Perth and Kinross

Perth and Kinross has managed buildings of every age, from older blocks to new developments. Mastic of different ages and quality often sits side by side, so we look at the whole elevation before quoting.

Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with building warrants from the local authority verifier. Our part is sealing to the specification, whatever the building. In the parts of Perth and Kinross near the sea, the elevations facing the weather are where sealant gives up first.

Perth: Site managers at schools like Perth High School can fit frame mastic into the summer works. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Perth station, 0.7 miles to the south-east of Perth, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

What we’re called out for in Perth and Kinross

Communal entrances and corridors see a lot of wear, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Cleaning products add to the wear.

It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:

No planned programme for sealant
Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
Occupiers reporting cold air round windows

What happens if it’s left?

Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Full removal and proper preparation is what lasts.

How the quote is worked out

To price the job, we consider:

Which sealant the job calls for
The size and state of each joint
The site’s rules and procedures
Working within restricted access windows

Pricing mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Sending details for a quote

There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:

Access details, including height
Where the site is, with the postcode
The asbestos register, for older buildings
What the building is and how it’s used

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

What sealant work can’t fix

Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:

Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
Broken glass or failed sealed units
Masonry that has broken away beside the joint

Commercial clients in Perth and Kinross

Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. One quote can cover more than one site, which keeps the paperwork simple.

FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.

FAQs: Perth and Kinross

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.

How much does the work cost?

We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photos or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.

How long does a job like this take?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

What about access for upper-floor joints?

Every block is different. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so the fixed quote reflects it.

Will you quote for a small job?

Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

What guarantee do you give on resealing?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.

What if the old mastic contains asbestos?

Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
