Mastic sealing in Donside Village
Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. Dates, areas and the order of work are agreed with you in advance, giving you what you need to notify residents. Communal entrances and stairs stay usable while we work. If you are dealing with the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and occupiers reporting cold air round windows, we can help. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Donside Village is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Many of Scotland’s city tenements are looked after by property factors. Shared-part mastic work is usually agreed by the owners, often through the factor, and can cover a whole close or block.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

What else we do in Donside Village
After the work
After handover, these steps help:
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Silicone normally can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and saves internal repairs.
Frames, entrances and external joints in Donside Village
With the shore within about 2 miles, Donside Village counts as a coastal location. On buildings near the shore, the side facing the weather typically needs its mastic renewed first. The east of Scotland, where Donside Village is, gets less rain than the west. Outside mastic still waits for dry, frost-clear conditions. We plan block programmes with some give for it
Site managers at schools like St Machar Academy can fit frame mastic into the summer works. Churches, halls and community buildings such as St Joseph's Church are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time. If you own or manage units on a site such as Aberdeen Innovation Park (under half a mile north of Donside Village), failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit.

Leave it or put it right?
Draughts round window perimeters cost occupiers comfort and the windows normally get the blame. In many cases, new perimeter sealant deals with it when the frames themselves are sound. Failed sealant in a shared building in Donside Village can affect more than one owner. Fixing it promptly keeps repairs small.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Donside Village
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Donside Village can form part of a wider programme.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts. Work on a big city site in Scotland normally involves inductions and permits. Pass on the site’s contractor rules when you get in touch.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
- The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
- Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.
What we need from you
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Send your site hours and access windows
Getting a fixed quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
Advice
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

Can you quote for a block close to Aberdeen station?

Which sealant will you use?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.

The work is planned around occupiers. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told, and entrances stay in use.
