From enquiry to sign-off
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Falkland is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
- Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Point out any areas we must not close

Questions about Falkland
Is Falkland off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across every Scottish council area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you quote for mastic across several buildings in and around Falkland?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
It depends on the building. We agree access with you at quote stage so the fixed quote reflects it.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?
We are 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.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Communal areas
Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Tidy, sound joints keep them looking cared for.
External movement joints
Failed sealant is removed, backing rod inserted to control depth and the joint resealed with a grade whose movement class fits.

When to bring in a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Maintenance after handover
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- 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 typically can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it.
Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Once that happens, repairs come before resealing and the job grows.
