For documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.

What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Any specification or named product
- Access details, including height
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us.
Different surfaces, different methods
Tenement and older buildings
Older mastic can contain asbestos, so we check the asbestos register or survey first. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
We typically work through a block’s windows in a planned order. Access is agreed with you before the quote is fixed.

After the work
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.
Mastic sealing around Auchengray: what changes locally
The east of Scotland, where Auchengray is, gets less rain than the west. Cold mornings still limit when outside mastic can go on. We plan block programmes with some give for it
If you are responsible for a building such as Auchengray Church, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Breich station (4.7 miles north-west of Auchengray) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

Why act early in Auchengray
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too and occupiers notice. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Auchengray before they leak.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Your questions answered
Will you price a mastic programme across our Auchengray portfolio?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
Will you take on a block within reach of Breich station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
How long before the joints can be used?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place, and we’ll tell you how we’d approach it.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
