Mastic sealing in Murthly, done properly
There isn’t one mastic for every joint on a building. Window perimeters and external joints often take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone, and MS polymer sealants stick well to many substrates and often take paint. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product. If you are dealing with worn sealant at communal door frames and patchy repairs in mismatched sealant, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Murthly, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
For buildings around Murthly, we group the work to keep travel and visits down. Send addresses and photographs for a quote covering the batch.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Work for main contractors and building owners
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around Murthly. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Cost factors for mastic joints
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Access and working height
A quote for mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Access details, including height
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The site address and postcode
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
What sealant work can’t fix
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Where we work in Murthly
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
Surface by surface
External movement joints
External movement joints take up expansion and contraction. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.
Communal areas
Communal areas stay in use while we work. Work is planned in sections.
Keeping the joints sound
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Resealing when cracking first shows avoids water damage and the complaints that come with it.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Murthly. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
What we need from you
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
Quotes
Every quote starts with the facts: 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
Frames, entrances and external joints in Murthly
The east of Scotland, where Murthly is, gets less rain than the west. Outside mastic still waits for dry, frost-clear conditions. Block programmes are built with that in mind
Buildings close to stations like Dunkeld & Birnam station, 4.9 miles north-west of Murthly, are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound. If you are responsible for a building such as United Presbyterian Church, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.
