Signs you need mastic sealing in Robroyston
Previous repairs often sealed new mastic over old. New sealant won’t grip failed sealant, so these repairs rarely last.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- No planned programme for sealant
Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Robroyston station (0.6 miles south-east of Robroyston) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Knocks cause many early failures in communal areas.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. A programme can start with the worst buildings and work down the list.
Common questions from Robroyston clients
Will you take on work at estates like Glasgow North Retail Park, close to Robroyston?
Yes, sites like Glasgow North Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Robroyston. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
How is mastic work on a tenement’s shared parts in Robroyston typically organised?
Normally the owners agree it together, and a property factor often handles the arrangements. We’re happy to deal with the factor directly.
Do you do block-wide mastic programmes?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. You get a fixed quote per building or for the whole job.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
What will the job cost?
That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.
Is any job too small?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Our process
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Give us the access times and building rules for your premises in Robroyston, and we’ll plan the work to suit, phased where areas need to stay in use.
- 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.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
What we need from you
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Agree which areas must stay open
Ask for a quote
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or email us.

When something else is needed
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
