Advice
FAQs: Gargunnock
Which documents can you supply for work in Gargunnock?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you quote for mastic across several buildings in and around Gargunnock?
Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are a regular request. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
Do you cover Gargunnock?
Yes. Sites across Gargunnock are covered, with one number for every area we cover.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
What about access for upper-floor joints?
Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we will confirm the approach in the quote.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.
General trades versus a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Mastic sealing in Gargunnock: the local picture
Being in the west of Scotland, Gargunnock gets more rain than eastern areas. Exposed elevations on blocks take a soaking and their mastic shows it. Outside mastic goes on in dry spells, with some flexibility in the programme.
Around Gargunnock, a planned programme renews failed mastic across a building or estate in one go. Older community buildings, Parish Church among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.

What the job involves on each surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
On most blocks, the frame-to-wall joint is where failure shows first. Old perimeter mastic is removed, the joint prepared and new sealant tooled in.
Communal areas
Communal areas stay in use while we work. Work is planned in sections.
What we can’t put right
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
