How the quote is worked out
Before we quote, we look at:
- How accessible the joints are
- How much there is to seal
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Location, for remote and island sites
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. It helps to include:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- The type of building and who uses it
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Commercial clients in Reddingmuirhead
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
What we are called out for in Reddingmuirhead
The edges of the material itself sometimes break away for example where render or brick edges crumble. If the edges are unsound, we say so before quoting the sealing.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
- Damp patches beside frames
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
Site managers at schools like Graeme High School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.
