About our mastic sealing in Auchenblae
For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Our applicators are CSCS-carded and we hold public liability insurance. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. The enquiries we see most involve repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and damp patches beside frames, across communal entrances and stairwells, communal kitchens and washrooms and window and door perimeters on blocks. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Auchenblae first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
For buildings around Auchenblae, we group the work to keep travel and visits down. A list of addresses and photographs lets us quote for them together.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

General trades versus a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Auchenblae: questions and answers
Is a smaller place like Auchenblae outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do you take on block-wide or estate-wide mastic work in Auchenblae?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
Every block is different. We agree access with you at quote stage so the fixed quote reflects it.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Who decides which product is used?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Why deal with it now?
Adding sealant to cyclical maintenance is an easy win. Leaving it until there’s a leak turns it into reactive work with less control over timing. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Auchenblae, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Why us?
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
- 12 months’ guarantee on every job
- Standard and matched colours in many product ranges
- Colour agreed before work starts

Different surfaces, different methods
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Blocks have a mix of frame materials, so the grade we pick has to bond to frame and wall alike. Colours are confirmed for the product used.
External movement joints
Joint size and product are matched to the expected movement, often around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises.
Mastic sealing in Auchenblae: the local picture

Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Laurencekirk station, 4.4 miles south of Auchenblae, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building. Older community buildings, Auchenblae Parish Church among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.

Keeping the joints sound
After handover, these steps help:
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Log resealing dates block by block
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over unless told otherwise.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. A programme can start with the worst buildings and work down the list.
