When to bring in a specialist

Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

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.

Kinmundy: questions and answers

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

Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. We work to your notice and access arrangements.

Can you work at a site such as Bridgehaugh Industrial Estate, by Kinmundy?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Kinmundy, Bridgehaugh Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

How long does a typical visit take?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.

What paperwork can you provide?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.

Do you guarantee the mastic work?

Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

How do you choose the sealant?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

Different surfaces, different methods

External movement joints

The joint width has to suit the movement and the sealant’s capability, often around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises.

Estate-wide resealing programmes

Priority order can follow condition, complaints or your maintenance plan. You get one fixed quote per building or for the whole estate.

Honest limits

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:

  • Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
  • Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
  • Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints

Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Mastic sealing in Kinmundy: the local picture

The east of Scotland, where Kinmundy is, gets less rain than the west. External mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and winter mornings can be frosty. Block programmes are built with that in mind

If you own or manage units on a site such as Bridgehaugh Industrial Estate, which lies south of Kinmundy, failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Dyce station (to the south of Kinmundy) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

After the work

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:

  • Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
  • Track which buildings were done and when
  • Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
  • Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first

Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Silicone usually can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it unless told otherwise.

Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and saves internal repairs.

When to call us in Kinmundy

Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and the sealant takes up that movement. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits long before it should.

Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:

  • Worn sealant at communal door frames
  • Damp patches beside frames
  • Draughts at frames across a block
  • Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant

If you’re responsible for a building such as Newmachar Church, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.

What your quote should include

  • Their public liability cover
  • Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
  • What site paperwork they can supply
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
