Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Craigmarloch
Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Our applicators are CSCS-carded and we hold public liability insurance. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Most enquiries involve damp patches beside frames and open joints in brickwork or panels, on window and door perimeters on blocks, external wall and movement joints and communal entrances and stairwells. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Craigmarloch, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around smaller places such as Craigmarloch, buildings managed by landlords and associations are often small groups of flats, sheltered housing and halls. Frames on exposed elevations are where mastic normally fails first.
Work we carry out in North Lanarkshire comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll arrange a return visit.

What sets the cost
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- How much existing material needs removing
- Any access equipment needed
- The size and state of each joint
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
Sending details for a quote
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. It helps to include:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- What the building is and how it’s used
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
Owners, agents and contractors
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Surface by surface
Planned maintenance
Mastic wears out like any building component; how fast comes down to movement, weather, UV and the product. Inspecting joints regularly keeps programmes on track.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
We usually work through a block’s windows in a planned order. Access is agreed with you before the quote is fixed.
Questions we’re asked in Craigmarloch
Is a smaller place like Craigmarloch outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Will you take on work at estates like Cumbernauld Retail Park, close to Craigmarloch?
Yes. Our area takes in Craigmarloch and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Cumbernauld Retail Park included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Yes. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn, and the programme can start with the worst.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
How do I request a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit.
Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work in Craigmarloch

Why it’s worth doing now in Craigmarloch
Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. Planned resealing covers a whole building or estate in one go and is simpler to manage and budget. Around smaller places like Craigmarloch, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

For agents with blocks near Croy station (0.6 miles west of Craigmarloch), a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. For a school such as Our Lady's High, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.
