Surface by surface
Tenement and older buildings
Stone needs a neutral-cure product, so we pick a grade that won’t mark it.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Window and door perimeters are where most mastic failure shows. Old perimeter mastic is removed, the joint prepared and new sealant tooled in.
FAQs: Croftamie
Can you quote for mastic across several buildings in and around Croftamie?
Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Send the addresses and photographs and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Is Croftamie too far out for you?
Not at all. Croftamie is within our area. We work across every Scottish council area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
We do. Most of our mastic sealing is for agents, factors, housing associations and portfolio landlords, and we quote building by building or as a programme.
What paperwork can you provide?
We’re CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
Every block is different. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so there are no surprises.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work normally takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
On site: what to expect
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Croftamie is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- 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.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.

What else we do in Croftamie
After the work
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- Track which buildings were done and when
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Group repairs into a planned programme
Keep bins, bikes and deliveries away from low-level joints where you can. Knocks cause many early failures in communal areas.
Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and saves internal repairs.
When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- External wall and movement joints

Leave it or put it right?
Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Croftamie, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.
