Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Skye of Curr
Different joints need different sealants. Window perimeters and external joints often take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product. If you are dealing with draughts at frames across a block and worn sealant at communal door frames, we can help. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Skye of Curr first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In smaller Scottish places like Skye of Curr, managed property is mostly small blocks, sheltered housing, hotels and community buildings. Frames on exposed elevations are where mastic typically fails first.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Why act early in Skye of Curr
Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It doesn’t bond and typically fails within a short time. Full removal and proper preparation is what lasts. Around smaller places like Skye of Curr, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.
Why us?
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
- A fixed quote before work starts

FAQs: Skye of Curr
Do you take on block-wide or estate-wide mastic work in Skye of Curr?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
Is Skye of Curr too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Skye of Curr is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
We do. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
How do you handle work on occupied blocks?
We plan around people living or working in the building. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers and communal access is kept open.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
Aftercare for building managers
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.
When something else is needed
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Balcony and threshold joints
- External wall and movement joints

Common problems we fix in Skye of Curr
Buildings move with temperature and moisture, and every joint has to stretch and squeeze with them. A joint that was too narrow, too thin or the wrong product can’t cope and fails early.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
For a building around Skye of Curr, a look at every elevation first shows which joints need renewing now and which can wait.
