Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Doing it in-house
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, which is what makes a joint last.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Menteith
Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. Many prefer a planned programme to one-off visits, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. If you have cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and communal area joints that look neglected, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Menteith is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Travel to smaller places like Menteith is planned so several buildings can be done on one trip. Send addresses and photos for a quote covering the batch.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

What sets the cost
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- The product specified
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
A quote for mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Before you send an enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Any specification or named product
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- When you need the work done
- Access details, including height
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with what you know.
For managing agents and facilities managers
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
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:
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- External wall and movement joints
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
Leave it or put it right?
Open external joints let water into walls and around frames. Damp patches, stained plaster and decorating claims can follow and those cost far more to put right. For buildings near Menteith, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photos and we’ll quote for everything together.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

Your questions answered
Can you quote for mastic across several buildings in and around Menteith?
Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are a regular request. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
Is a smaller place like Menteith outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
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 we quote building by building or as a programme.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
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’ll confirm with the quote.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.
How a job runs
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Menteith is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
- Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Let us know about inductions and permits
