Common questions from Ness clients
Can you take on a job in Ness, on the island?
Yes. We cover the whole of Scotland, and that includes island locations such as Ness. We group island work where we can and plan around the crossings.
Can being near the sea in Ness affect the sealant we need?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
Yes. 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.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
The work is planned around occupiers. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told and communal access is kept open.
Can you quote from photos?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.
Do you do block-wide mastic programmes?
We can. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn starting wherever is most urgent.
What happens if it’s left?
Replacing mastic before water gets in is a planned job. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows, and the complaints come with it. For buildings near Ness, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photos and we’ll quote for everything together.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

How the quote is worked out
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and state of each joint
- Access and working height
- How much existing material needs removing
- The product specified
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
What to include in your enquiry
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form if you’d rather talk the job through.
What the job involves on each surface
Planned maintenance
How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Regular inspection is the best way to plan resealing.
Communal areas
Entrance doors, screens and corridor junctions in communal areas all have sealant joints. Tidy, sound joints keep them looking cared for.
