Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Track which buildings were done and when
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges and record where they are.
Water getting in round frames can damage plaster, decoration and the frames themselves. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.
Mastic sealing in Pitreavie
Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. If you have repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and a mix of products and colours from past repairs, we can help, on shopfronts below residential blocks, balcony and threshold joints and communal kitchens and washrooms alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Pitreavie is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around Pitreavie, outside mastic waits for dry weather and the right temperature. Programmes allow for the weather.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Pitreavie. For owners and agents with buildings near the sea, exposed elevations are where frame mastic fails first, so it’s worth inspecting those sides more often. Five care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from Pitreavie. Care home owners need frame and external mastic kept sound without unsettling residents.
With historic buildings such as Pittencrieff House (to the north-west of Pitreavie) in the wider area, owners of older properties around Pitreavie should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.
