Questions we’re asked in Barony and Castle of Corsehill

Is a smaller place like Barony and Castle of Corsehill outside your area?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Stewarton station?

Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. We work to your notice and access arrangements.

Can people stay in the building while you reseal?

The work is planned around occupiers. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers, and entrances stay in use.

Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?

Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.

How long does a job like this take?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

Mastic sealing in Barony and Castle of Corsehill

Owners and agents usually inherit a building’s mastic rather than choose it, and it ages quietly: window perimeters, door frames, external joints and communal junctions all rely on it. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow along with complaints. If you have movement joints with sealant missing and complaints coming in block by block, we can put it right, on external wall and movement joints, shopfronts below residential blocks and communal entrances and stairwells alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Barony and Castle of Corsehill first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

For buildings around Barony and Castle of Corsehill, we group the work to keep travel and visits down. Send addresses and photographs for a quote covering the batch.

Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

When to call us in Barony and Castle of Corsehill

Buildings move with temperature and moisture, and the sealant takes up that movement. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits and fails early.

Look out for the following:

  • Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
  • Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
  • Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
  • Occupiers reporting cold air round windows

If your remit includes a building such as Stewarton Academy, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.

What to look for in a quote

  • The terms of the workmanship guarantee
  • The named product and why it was chosen
  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Leave it or put it right?

Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It doesn’t bond and typically fails within a short time. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.

The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.

Why appoint us

  • Matching to RAL references, product permitting
  • Constructionline member
  • Over 20 years of commercial sealing
  • Health and safety: CHAS accredited

If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Barony and Castle of Corsehill

Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Barony and Castle of Corsehill. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.

Looking after the joints

Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:

  • Share your contractor requirements early
  • Keep a record of when each building was resealed
  • Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
  • Prioritise elevations facing the weather

Include sealant in planned building inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away, and note the building and elevation.

Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first.
