Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Group repairs into a planned programme
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away, and note the building and elevation.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. A programme can start with the worst buildings and work down the list.
How we handle mastic sealing in Fenwick
There isn’t one mastic for every joint on a building. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many window perimeters and external movement joints, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable, and colours are confirmed for whichever product is used. Most enquiries involve window mastic that has split and shrunk and damp patches beside frames, on window and door perimeters on blocks, external wall and movement joints and balcony and threshold joints. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Fenwick is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In smaller Scottish places like Fenwick, managed property is mostly small blocks, sheltered housing, hotels and community buildings. Frames on exposed elevations are where mastic typically fails first.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Doing it in-house
Some joints are best left to specialists: 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.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Your questions answered
Is Fenwick too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you take on a block within reach of Stewarton station?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Send the address, photographs of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.
What paperwork can you provide?
Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
Yes, block and estate work is a core part of what we do. Buildings are scheduled in turn so you can plan around it.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work usually takes a few days for most blocks, with larger programmes scheduled building by building. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Quoting for work in Fenwick
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Phasing around occupants
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Sending details for a quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Specification clauses that apply
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to discuss it first.
What sealant work can’t fix
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
