How we handle mastic sealing in Kirkmichael
Owners and agents typically inherit a building’s mastic rather than choose it, and it ages quietly: it sits round windows and doors, along external joints and through communal areas. Once it cracks, hardens or comes away, draughts and water find a way in, and occupiers start reporting it. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells, and what we’re called in for most is damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors and cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Kirkmichael is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Travel to smaller places like Kirkmichael is planned so several buildings can be done on one trip. Send addresses and photographs for a quote covering the batch.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Historic properties like Dirnanean House (2.3 miles north of Kirkmichael) show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone.

Your questions answered
Is Kirkmichael too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you price a mastic programme across our Kirkmichael portfolio?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it and suspect material is tested first.
Which sealant will you use?
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.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
We do. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?
Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

What else we do in Kirkmichael
Signs you need mastic sealing in Kirkmichael
Previous repairs often sealed new mastic over old. New silicone has nothing to grip on old silicone and the repair soon fails.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Damp patches beside frames
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
- No planned programme for sealant
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
Trustees of buildings like Duff Memorial Church can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Their public liability cover
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
Leave it or put it right?

Quoting for work in Kirkmichael
These are the things that shape the price:
- Phasing around occupants
- Any access equipment needed
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Location, for remote and island sites
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.
Sending details for a quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- When you need the work done
- Access details, including height
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
When to bring in a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

Our process
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Kirkmichael is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photos, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
What we need from you
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Agree which areas must stay open
