About our mastic sealing in Maryton
Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover, and it ages quietly: window perimeters, door frames, external joints and communal junctions all rely on it. Once it cracks, hardens or comes away, draughts and water find a way in, and occupiers start reporting it. If you’re dealing with a mix of products and colours from past repairs and open joints in brickwork or panels, we can put it right, on window and door perimeters on blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Maryton, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Travel to smaller places like Maryton is planned so several buildings can be done on one trip. Send addresses and photos for a quote covering the batch.
Work we carry out in Angus comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

Commercial clients in Maryton
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Maryton can form part of a wider programme.
Aftercare for building managers
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges and record where they are.
The longer failed joints are left, the more likely the substrate edges break up. Then the edges may need repairing first.
When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Glazing that needs replacing
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Maryton
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Access and working height
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us with what you know.
FAQs: Maryton
Will you price a mastic programme across our Maryton portfolio?
Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
Is Maryton too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
How soon can the area be used again?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
Yes, block and estate work is a core part of what we do. Buildings are scheduled in turn with dates agreed in advance.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
For owners and agents in Maryton
The east of Scotland, where Maryton is, gets less rain than the west. External mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and winter mornings can be frosty. We plan block programmes with some give for it
For owners of several units at places like Logie Business Park, less than half a mile west of Maryton, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. Churches, halls and community buildings such as St Andrew's Church are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time. Historic properties like Glamis Castle (3.2 miles south of Maryton) show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone.

Doing it in-house
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
