How we handle mastic sealing in Maud
Older blocks and commercial buildings can have mastic that contains asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If you’re dealing with draughts at frames across a block and repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings, we can help. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Maud tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Around Maud, outside mastic waits for dry weather and the right temperature. Programmes allow for the weather.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Common questions from Maud clients
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Maud?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near Maud?
Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Send the addresses and photos and we’ll give a fixed quote.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, 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.
Surface by surface
External movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel joints let a building move. Failed sealant in a movement joint lets water in.
Communal areas
Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Fresh joints make shared areas look looked after.
How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Phasing around occupants
- Any access equipment needed
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Travel to remote or island sites
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.
What to include in your enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Any specification or named product
- The postcode of the building
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form to discuss it first.
Why it’s worth doing now in Maud
Failed perimeter mastic lets cold air in around frames, and they often blame the windows. Resealing the perimeters is often the simpler fix where the frames themselves are sound. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Maud, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Pricing mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.

We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off.

- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.

What we need from you
- Send any specification or drawings in advance

Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Honest limits
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Balcony and threshold joints
- External wall and movement joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
Looking after the joints
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Log resealing dates block by block
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. A programme can start with the worst buildings and work down the list.
