Why act early in Innerwick
Looking at mastic during planned maintenance costs little. Waiting until leaks appear means working under pressure with less control over timing. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Innerwick, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Why appoint us
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
- Health and safety: CHAS accredited
- Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance

What we are called out for in Innerwick
Many failed joints were sealed without backing rod, so the mastic is glued to the joint bottom too. It can’t stretch properly and it tears.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
Churches, halls and community buildings such as Innerwick Parish Church are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.
What your quote should include
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?

What sets the cost
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Any access equipment needed
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- How much existing material needs removing
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- The postcode of the building
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The product your specification calls for
- The type of building and who uses it
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or email us.
From enquiry to sign-off
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work normally takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. For a building near Innerwick, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We’ll confirm the plan with the fixed quote.

Questions about Innerwick
Is Innerwick too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you take on a block within reach of Dunbar station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we’ll quote and plan to suit.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, 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. Inside work is seldom held up.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
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.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
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’ll confirm the approach in the quote.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.
Looking after the joints
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
Encourage occupiers to report water or draughts at frames. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
Water getting in round frames can damage plaster, decoration and the frames themselves. Resealing early keeps the job small.
Looking after buildings in and around Innerwick
Innerwick lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Sea-facing elevations take driven rain and salt, and their mastic shows it before the sheltered sides do, so it’s worth inspecting those sides more often. Innerwick is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Outside mastic still waits for dry, frost-clear conditions. Programmes allow for that
