About our mastic sealing in Brechin
Different joints need different sealants. Window perimeters and external joints often take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, shopfronts below residential blocks and communal entrances and stairwells, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are damp patches beside frames and cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block. Most enquiries from Brechin start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Travel to smaller places like Brechin is planned so several buildings can be done on one trip. A list of addresses and photos lets us quote for them together.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

What else we do in Brechin
Why deal with it now?
Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish and one 12-month guarantee. Around smaller places like Brechin, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

From enquiry to sign-off
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. For work around Brechin, we aim for one trip, so photos, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
Preparing the site
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Flag any permit to work we will need

Questions about Brechin
Will you take on work at estates like Brechin Business Park, close to Brechin?
Yes, sites like Brechin Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Brechin. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near Brechin?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we will confirm the approach in the quote.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Can people stay in the building while you reseal?
We plan around people living or working in the building. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers and communal access is kept open.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.
When to bring in a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
