Mastic sealing in Kirriemuir
For blocks and buildings in Kirriemuir and across Angus, the process is the same: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. Addresses, photos of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote or we can visit. Most enquiries involve the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and communal area joints that look neglected, across shopfronts below residential blocks, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Kirriemuir from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Travel to smaller places like Kirriemuir is planned so several buildings can be done on one trip. A list of addresses and photos lets us quote for them together.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Angus. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will arrange a return visit.

Frames, entrances and external joints in Kirriemuir
The east of Scotland, where Kirriemuir 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
Historic properties like Glamis Castle, 3.8 miles to the south of Kirriemuir, show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone. Property owners at sites such as Muirhead Industrial Estate, 0.6 miles to the south of Kirriemuir, can have mastic renewed between lettings.
Kirriemuir is about 14 miles north of Dundee, in Angus. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Kirriemuir can call on us for mastic joints. Kirriemuir is one of 65 places we cover in Angus. There’s a separate page for Dundee, about 14 miles away.
Commercial sites across DD8 are covered. We cover commercial and managed buildings on High Street, St Malcolm's Wynd and Rosefield Gardens and the roads nearby. Access to Kirriemuir is via the A926 and A928 among other routes. If your building is just outside Kirriemuir, we cover Maryton (1 mile south-east), Westmuir (1 mile south-west), Padanaram (3 miles south-east), Douglastown (5 miles south-east) and Glamis (5 miles south).

Around Kirriemuir
In Kirriemuir, that means premises near Roods Bar and the streets around them. Well-known places in the area include Kirriemuir Gateway to the Glens Museum (under half a mile south) and Forfar Infirmary (5.3 miles east). Not far away are Loch of Kinnordy and Mile Hill.
Should maintenance staff do it?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
From enquiry to sign-off
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Where we can, we combine work around Kirriemuir with other jobs nearby. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- 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.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Before we start on site
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
Quotes
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Advice
Why act early in Kirriemuir
Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish and one 12-month guarantee. For buildings near Kirriemuir, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photos and we’ll quote for everything together.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Looking after the joints
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Track which buildings were done and when
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we will look at it. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. We can quote buildings in priority order so spending is spread.
How the job changes by surface
Tenement and older buildings
Some old mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos, so we check the asbestos register or survey first. Suspect material is tested before work continues.
Estate-wide resealing programmes
An estate of similar buildings suits a rolling programme. Each block is priced and scheduled in order.
