When to call us in Golspie
Sunlight and weather break mastic down over time. It stiffens, stops stretching and cracks, especially on south and west faces.
Look out for the following:
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
- Water getting in round frames after rain
Landlords with units on estates such as Golpsie Business Park, 0.5 miles to the south-west of Golspie, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.

Mastic sealing in Golspie, done properly
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is cut out, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. Removing asbestos-containing material isn’t something we do. The enquiries we see most involve communal area joints that look neglected and the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio, on balcony and threshold joints, shopfronts below residential blocks and window and door perimeters on blocks. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Golspie it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around Golspie, outside mastic waits for dry weather and the right temperature. We agree a window with some flexibility.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Share your contractor requirements early
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we’ll look at it. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work typically takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access, and we clear our waste as we work. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Golspie is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Questions about Golspie
Can being near the sea in Golspie affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Does your area include sites such as Golpsie Business Park, near Golspie?
Yes. We cover Golspie and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Golpsie Business Park. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you do block-wide mastic programmes?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. You get a fixed quote per building or for the whole job.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned, and we’ll tell you how we’d approach it.
How do I request a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
What do you charge?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote.
When to bring in a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Frames, entrances and external joints in Golspie
Golspie lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Blocks and commercial buildings facing the sea take the most weather on their window perimeters and external joints; plan inspections around that. The east of Scotland, where Golspie is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still delay outside mastic. Programmes allow for that
For agents with blocks near Golspie station (under half a mile south-west of Golspie), a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. If your remit includes a building such as Golspie High School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.
