About our mastic sealing in Monymusk
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is cut out and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos-containing material isn’t something we do. We work on external wall and movement joints, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and a mix of products and colours from past repairs. Whoever orders the work in Monymusk, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Outside mastic in Scotland needs dry joints and the right temperature, so work around Monymusk is planned with the forecast. We agree a window with some flexibility.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application.

On site: what to expect
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For work around Monymusk, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.
Getting the site ready
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice
Looking after the joints
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. A programme can start with the worst buildings and work down the list.
What the job involves on each surface
Communal areas
We keep entrances and stairs open throughout. We work in sections so access is never blocked.
Tenement and older buildings
Older buildings, including Scotland’s sandstone tenements, have their own joint details. The material either side of the joint shapes the product choice.
Looking after buildings in and around Monymusk
The east of Scotland, where Monymusk 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
Trustees of buildings like St Mary's Parish Church can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list. For owners and agents with buildings in or around Monymusk, block-wide mastic programmes deal with frames and external joints of the same age together.

Questions we are asked in Monymusk
Will you price a mastic programme across our Monymusk portfolio?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
Is Monymusk off your patch?
No. Places such as Monymusk are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
How soon can the area be used again?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
What paperwork can you provide?
Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
For managing agents and facilities managers
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
What else we do in Monymusk
When to bring in a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. 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.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
