Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
It depends on the building. We agree access with you at quote stage so the fixed quote reflects it.

What we can’t put right
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Jobs near New Alyth are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Preparing the site
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Point out parking and an unloading spot

Owners, agents and contractors
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, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Do you need mastic sealing in New Alyth?
We often find joints filled solid with no backing rod, so the mastic is glued to the joint bottom too. It can’t stretch properly and it tears.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- Failed external movement joints
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
Churches, halls and community buildings such as St Ninian's Episcopal Church are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Cost factors for mastic joints
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Which sealant the job calls for
- How much existing material needs removing
- Distance, for remote addresses
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you’re ready.
Before you send an enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The type of building and who uses it
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
