FAQs: New Aberdour
Does a coastal location like New Aberdour affect which sealant is used?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Will you price a mastic programme across our New Aberdour portfolio?
Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
How long will the new sealant last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Do you work in New Aberdour?
Yes. We take on work across New Aberdour.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
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.
About our mastic sealing in New Aberdour
Different joints need different sealants. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many window perimeters and external movement joints, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable, and colours are confirmed for whichever product is used. Most enquiries involve old repairs sealed over failed mastic and draughts at frames across a block, on window and door perimeters on blocks, balcony and threshold joints and communal kitchens and washrooms. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in New Aberdour from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Outside mastic in Scotland needs dry joints and the right temperature, so work around New Aberdour is planned with the forecast. Programmes allow for the weather.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Looking after buildings in and around New Aberdour
The sea is no more than about 2 miles from New Aberdour. Blocks and commercial buildings facing the sea take the most weather on their window perimeters and external joints; plan inspections around that. New Aberdour is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still delay outside mastic.
Trustees of buildings like Saint Drostan's Church can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list. Owners near New Aberdour can renew frame and external mastic block by block on one programme.

When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- External wall and movement joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks

What sets the cost
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Joint width, depth and condition
- How much there is to seal
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Sending details for a quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- When you need the work done
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Other services in New Aberdour
Different surfaces, different methods
External movement joints
Movement joints are cleaned out, backed with rod and resealed with a sealant of the right movement class.
Tenement and older buildings
Traditional buildings have joints that need a careful approach. We look at the substrate before choosing a sealant.
Leave it or put it right?
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too, and the complaints come with it. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like New Aberdour. Send photographs and we will quote for everything together.
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Our process
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Where we can, we combine work around New Aberdour with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
- We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
