About our mastic sealing in Balmedie
Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover and it slowly wears out: window perimeters, door frames, external joints and communal junctions all rely on it. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow, and occupiers start reporting it. If you’re dealing with repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and patchy repairs in mismatched sealant, we can help, whatever the surface. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Balmedie? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
Around Balmedie, outside mastic waits for dry weather and the right temperature. Programmes allow for the weather.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Aberdeenshire. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

How a job runs
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Balmedie. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
- A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
- The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Point out parking and an unloading spot

Doing it in-house
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.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Planned mastic for Balmedie portfolios
Balmedie is within about 1 mile of the coast. For owners and agents with buildings near the sea, exposed elevations are where frame mastic fails first. The east of Scotland, where Balmedie is, gets less rain than the west. Cold mornings still limit when outside mastic can go on. Programmes allow for that
For owners of several units at places like Blackdog Industrial Centre (2 miles south of Balmedie), one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot.
Balmedie is about 7 miles north of Aberdeen, in Aberdeenshire. Any commercial site in Balmedie is covered, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Balmedie is one of 179 places we cover in Aberdeenshire. There’s a separate page for Aberdeen, about 7 miles away.

Looking after the joints
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.
One failed perimeter usually means others on the same building are close so a single failure is a sign to check the rest. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
Signs you need mastic sealing in Balmedie
In communal areas, joints take knocks from bins, bikes, buggies and deliveries, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Regular cleaning wears them further.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
Churches, halls and community buildings such as Belhelvie North Church are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.
