Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Aviemore

Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. The enquiries we see most involve the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and leaks at window and door perimeters, across balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and communal entrances and stairwells.

In smaller Scottish places like Aviemore, managed property is mostly small blocks, sheltered housing, hotels and community buildings. Frames on exposed elevations are where mastic usually fails first.

What we can’t put right
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
Aftercare for building managers
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Track which buildings were done and when
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we’ll look at it. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.
How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- The total length or number of joints
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- How much existing material needs removing
Pricing mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What to include in your enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- The site address and postcode
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
On site: what to expect
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. For a building near Aviemore, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
- Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you

Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
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.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. We work through buildings in a planned order so you can plan around it.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Residents and tenants carry on as normal. If any flats or units need access, we will tell you in advance so you can arrange it with occupiers.
