Mastic sealing for Hillyland sites

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Jobs near Hillyland are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.

  1. We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
  2. You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
  3. Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
  4. We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
  5. Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.

What we need from you

  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Arrange parking or a loading space

Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Hillyland is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

Surface by surface

Window and door perimeters on blocks

Perimeter joints on blocks are best done elevation by elevation or block by block. Access is agreed with you before the quote is fixed.

Estate-wide resealing programmes

Using the same products throughout keeps the estate consistent.

Why deal with it now?

Draughts round window perimeters cost occupiers comfort and the windows normally get the blame. In many cases, new perimeter sealant deals with it where the frames themselves are sound. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Hillyland before they leak.

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.

FAQs: Hillyland

Can you quote for a block close to Perth station?

Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Send the address, photographs of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.

Is a smaller place like Hillyland outside your area?

No. Places such as Hillyland are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

What if the old mastic contains asbestos?

Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.

How long before the joints can be used?

The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.

What about access for upper-floor joints?

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 long do sealant joints last?

There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.

General trades versus a specialist

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

Do you need mastic sealing in Hillyland?

The edges of the material itself sometimes break away for instance where render or brick edges crumble. If the edges are unsound, we say so before quoting the sealing.

Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:

  • Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
  • Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
  • Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
  • Open joints in brickwork or panels

If you look after a block within reach of Perth station (1.8 miles south-east of Hillyland), frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.

Our contractor checklist

For managing agents and facilities managers

When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

Planned mastic for Hillyland portfolios

Hillyland has eight care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Care home owners need frame and external mastic kept sound without unsettling residents. Hillyland is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still delay outside mastic. Block programmes are built with that in mind

Landlords with units on estates such as Inveralmond Business Centre, 0.9 miles to the north of Hillyland, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme. For a school such as Perth High School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.

Hillyland is about 1 mile west of Perth, in Perth and Kinross. We cover commercial sites throughout Hillyland, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. Hillyland is one of 114 places we cover in Perth and Kinross for mastic joints. We also cover Dundee, some 20 miles away.
