About our mastic sealing in Coupar Angus

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. Once it cracks, hardens or comes away, draughts and water find a way in, and occupiers start reporting it. Most enquiries involve draughts at frames across a block and mastic failing across several blocks on an estate, on external wall and movement joints, window and door perimeters on blocks and shopfronts below residential blocks. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Coupar Angus, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Travel to smaller places like Coupar Angus is planned so several buildings can be done on one trip. A list of addresses and photos lets us quote for them together.

We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Coupar Angus: questions and answers

Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near Coupar Angus?

Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.

Is Coupar Angus off your patch?

No. Places such as Coupar Angus are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Does the weather affect the work?

It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.

How soon can the area be used again?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.

Is mastic sealing guaranteed?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?

We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.

What we can’t put right

Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Substrate edges that need repairing first
  • Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
  • Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove

Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we seal

  • External wall and movement joints
  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Communal entrances and stairwells

What the job involves on each surface

External movement joints

External movement joints take up expansion and contraction. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.

Tenement and older buildings

Some old mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos and the register is checked before anything is disturbed. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.

Should maintenance staff do it?

What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Our process

Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Where we can, we combine work around Coupar Angus with other jobs nearby. Tell us how flexible your dates are.

  1. First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
  2. A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
  3. The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
  4. Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Getting the site ready

  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

What affects the price in Coupar Angus

Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:

  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • How much existing material needs removing

A quote for mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.

What we need to price the job

However big the job, these details speed things up:

  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
  • Any specification or named product
  • The site address and postcode

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Mastic sealing in Coupar Angus: the local picture

Older buildings near Coupar Angus, from historic houses such as Balhary House (to the north-east of Coupar Angus) to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed.
