Mastic sealing across Greenrigg

Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.

Work for main contractors and building owners

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Greenrigg can sit alongside others in a wider programme across West Lothian.

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Greenrigg

Managing agents and housing associations normally need paperwork before anyone starts. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and window and door perimeters on blocks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are a mix of products and colours from past repairs and cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Greenrigg tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

Travel to smaller places like Greenrigg is planned so several buildings can be done on one trip. Send addresses and photos for a quote covering the batch.

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.

Should maintenance staff do it?

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.

Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.

What affects the price in Greenrigg

We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:

  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • The product specified
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • How accessible the joints are

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Before you send an enquiry

Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:

  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • The postcode of the building
  • Any specification or named product
  • Your programme or deadline

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

When something else is needed

Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Substrate edges that need repairing first
  • Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
  • Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove

If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer.

Where we work in Greenrigg

  • External wall and movement joints
  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
  • Communal entrances and stairwells
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks

On site: what to expect

We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Jobs near Greenrigg are often grouped with others in the same area. Tell us how flexible your dates are.

  1. We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
  2. A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
  3. We strip out the old sealant.
  4. The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
  5. We finish each building before moving to the next.

Preparing the site

  • Point out any areas we must not close
  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Let us know about inductions and permits

Advice

Questions we’re asked in Greenrigg

We manage a building near Blackridge station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.

Is Harthill Industrial Estate, near Greenrigg, within your area?

Yes, sites like Harthill Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Greenrigg. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?

We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.

Do you cover Greenrigg?

Yes. Sites across Greenrigg are covered, with one number for every area we cover.

How do you handle work on occupied blocks?

We plan around people living or working in the building. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers and communal access is kept open.

Can you seal joints high up on a block?

It depends on the building. We agree access with you at quote stage so there are no surprises.

Do you work with property factors and landlords?

Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. We work through buildings in a planned order so you can plan around it.

Maintenance after handover

Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:

  • Keep a record of when each building was resealed
  • Prioritise elevations facing the weather
  • Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
  • Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings

Keep bins, bikes and deliveries away from low-level joints where you can. Damage at low level is the most common reason communal joints fail early.

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.

Mastic sealing in Greenrigg: the local picture

Greenrigg is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. External mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and winter mornings can be frosty.

If your remit includes a building such as Armadale Academy, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Buildings close to stations like Blackridge station, 1.6 miles to the north of Greenrigg, are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound. For owners of several units at places like Harthill Industrial Estate, which lies west of Greenrigg, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot.
