Surface by surface
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Using the same products throughout keeps the estate consistent and easier to manage.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Frames vary from uPVC to aluminium and timber, so the grade we pick has to bond to frame and wall alike. Colours are confirmed for the product used.

FAQs: Muirhead
Does your area include sites such as Wester Gourdie Industrial Estate, near Muirhead?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Muirhead, Wester Gourdie Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you quote for a block close to Invergowrie station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Do you do block-wide mastic programmes?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. The quote can be split however suits your budgeting.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
What paperwork can you provide?
Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.
When something else is needed
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Glazing that needs replacing
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- External wall and movement joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints
What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The size and state of each joint
- How much existing material needs removing
- The product specified
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.
Before you send an enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- When you need the work done
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
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 if you’d rather talk the job through.
