  • Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
  • Materials that need asbestos testing before work
  • Broken glass or failed sealed units

Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we are called out for in Cambusbarron

Buildings move with temperature and moisture, and every joint has to stretch and squeeze with them. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits long before it should.

Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:

  • The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
  • Window mastic that has split and shrunk
  • Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
  • Movement joints with sealant missing

Landlords with units on estates such as Laurelhill Business Park (to the east of Cambusbarron) can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.

What to look for in a quote

  • How joint depth will be controlled
  • Who will actually carry out the work
  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed

Our contractor checklist

How a job runs

Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Where we can, we combine work around Cambusbarron with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.

  1. A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
  2. You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
  3. We agree the programme and dates with you.
  4. Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
  5. New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
  6. Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings
  • Make sure the joints can be reached

Work for main contractors and building owners

Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

Aftercare for building managers

After handover, these steps help:

  • Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
  • Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
  • Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
  • Share your contractor requirements early

Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. A quick report keeps a small repair small.

Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.

Surface by surface

Planned maintenance

Adding mastic to planned maintenance avoids reactive repairs and spreads the work.

Communal areas

We keep entrances and stairs open throughout. We work in sections so access is never blocked.

Cambusbarron: questions and answers

Is Cambusbarron off your patch?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Can you quote for a block close to Stirling station?

Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. We work to your notice and access arrangements.

How long before the joints can be used?

The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.

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, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

Do you seal on top of existing sealant?

No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

When is resealing likely to be due?

It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?

We’re CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
