Questions we are asked in Midmar
Is Midmar too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you work at a site such as Kirkwood Business Park, by Midmar?
Yes. We cover Midmar and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Kirkwood Business Park. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
How do I request a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
Is any job too small?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
We plan around people living or working in the building. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told, and entrances stay in use.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. The quote can be split however suits your budgeting.
Mastic sealing in Midmar, done properly
Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you so you can let residents know what is happening. Communal entrances and stairs stay usable throughout. If you are dealing with estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out and worn sealant at communal door frames, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Midmar, the brief is typically the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Around Midmar, outside mastic waits for dry weather and the right temperature. We agree a window with some flexibility.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Blocks and managed buildings in Midmar
Midmar is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still delay outside mastic. Block programmes are built with that in mind
If you own or manage units on a site such as Kirkwood Business Park, 2.5 miles to the north-east of Midmar, failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. For owners and agents with buildings in or around Midmar, block-wide mastic programmes deal with frames and external joints of the same age together.
Midmar is about 10 miles south-west of Inverurie, in Aberdeenshire. Any commercial site in Midmar is covered. Midmar is one of 179 places we cover in Aberdeenshire. We also cover Aberdeen, some 15 miles away.
Commercial sites across AB51 are covered. Nearby places we also cover include Sauchen (2 miles north-east), Echt (4 miles east), Dunecht (4 miles east), Monymusk (5 miles north) and Kirkton of Tough (5 miles north-west).

On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself typically taking a few days for most blocks, with larger programmes scheduled building by building. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Midmar is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
Request a quote
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we will fill any gaps with a visit.
Advice
Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges and record where they are.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.

Doing it in-house
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
What the job involves on each surface
Planned maintenance
Adding mastic to planned maintenance avoids reactive repairs and spreads the work.
External movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel joints let a building move. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.
Owners, agents and contractors
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
What we can’t put right
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
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer.
