FAQs: Avoch
Is Avoch off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across every Scottish council area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Avoch, such as Avoch Industrial Estate?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Avoch, Avoch Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
About our mastic sealing in Avoch
Managing agents and housing associations typically need paperwork before anyone starts. For documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and external wall and movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are brittle perimeter mastic across a building and old repairs sealed over failed mastic. For commercial sealant work in Avoch, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Travel to smaller places like Avoch is planned so several buildings can be done on one trip. A list of addresses and photographs lets us quote for them together.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Block-wide mastic in Avoch
Avoch is within about 1 mile of the coast. On buildings near the shore, the side facing the weather normally needs its mastic renewed first, and they deserve more regular inspection. Avoch is in the west of Scotland, the wetter side of the country. The weather side of a block usually needs attention first. External work is booked for dry spells, with a little give in the dates.
For owners of several units at places like Avoch Industrial Estate, 0.6 miles to the south of Avoch, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. Around Avoch, a planned programme renews failed mastic across a building or estate in one go.

What else we do in Avoch
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Landlords with commercial portfolios have shopfronts, office entrances and external joints to look after. We work across portfolios on a planned basis.
Communal areas
Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Fresh joints make shared areas look looked after.
What affects the price in Avoch
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The product specified
- How much there is to seal
- Location, for remote and island sites
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Details that help us quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- What the building is and how it’s used
For a fixed quote, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.
Keeping the joints sound
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
Keep records of when each building was resealed. It helps plan the next round and gives you a history.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. We can quote buildings in priority order so spending is spread.
Leave it or put it right?
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 the complaints come with it. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Avoch, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
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.
On site: what to expect
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. For work around Avoch, we aim for one trip, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
