Common questions from Priestland clients
Is Priestland off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Priestland?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. We hold £5m public liability insurance, are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators are CSCS-carded.
Do you do block-wide mastic programmes?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. The quote can be split however suits your budgeting.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
How do I request a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
What about access for upper-floor joints?
Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned, and we will tell you how we’d approach it.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
About our mastic sealing in Priestland
For blocks and buildings in Priestland and across East Ayrshire, the process is the same: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. A list of buildings, a few photos and approximate joint numbers are enough for a quick quote, and site visits can be arranged. Site teams most often ask us about window mastic that has split and shrunk and mastic failing across several blocks on an estate, on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and external wall and movement joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Priestland, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For buildings around Priestland, we group the work to keep travel and visits down. Send addresses and photos for a quote covering the batch.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Track which buildings were done and when
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
Log the date and extent of the resealing for each block. That makes future programmes easier to plan and shows what was done.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. We can quote buildings in priority order so spending is spread.
How a job runs
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts. For a building near Priestland, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Getting the site ready
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
Ask for a quote
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Advice
When to call us in Priestland
Much failed sealant was laid on dirty, dusty or damp surfaces. Without clean, sound faces and a primer where the product needs one, the bead peels off one side.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Draughts at frames across a block
- No planned programme for sealant
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
For owners and agents with buildings in or around Priestland, block-wide mastic programmes deal with frames and external joints of the same age together.
Before you book anyone
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- How joint depth will be controlled
- What site paperwork they can supply
Why deal with it now?
Open external joints let water into walls and around frames. Damp patches, stained plaster and decorating claims can follow and those cost far more to put right. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Priestland before they leak.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Why us?
- Public liability insurance in place
- Specification-led, product-correct work
- Colour options checked against the specified product
- Clear, fixed quotes
Read what affects the cost and our accreditations and insurance.
What sets the cost
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we look at:
- The total length or number of joints
- How accessible the joints are
- Which sealant the job calls for
- The site’s rules and procedures
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
Sending details for a quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Any dates the work must fit around
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or ring 01277 525 020 or email us to discuss it first.
