About our mastic sealing in Auchterarder
Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover, and it ages quietly: it sits round windows and doors, along external joints and through communal areas. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow along with complaints. If you have damp patches beside frames and no planned programme for sealant, we can help, on communal entrances and stairwells, external wall and movement joints and balcony and threshold joints alike. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Auchterarder, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around smaller places such as Auchterarder, buildings managed by landlords and associations are often small groups of flats, sheltered housing and halls. Exposed walls take Scottish weather hard, and frame mastic shows it first.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Questions we are asked in Auchterarder
Is Auchterarder too far out for you?
Not at all. Auchterarder is within our area. We work across every Scottish council area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Will you take on a block within reach of Gleneagles station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, backed by public liability insurance.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it and suspect material is tested first.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
We can. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order, and the programme can start with the worst.
How many days will you need on site?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. Buildings are scheduled in turn with dates agreed in advance.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
How the quote is worked out
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Access and working height
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Any specification or named product
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
