About our mastic sealing in St Fergus
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is cut out and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos-containing material isn’t something we do. Site teams most often ask us about damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors and mastic failing across several blocks on an estate, across external wall and movement joints, communal entrances and stairwells and window and door perimeters on blocks. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in St Fergus from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
For buildings around St Fergus, we group the work to keep travel and visits down. Send addresses and photos for a quote covering the batch.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Aberdeenshire. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will come back to it.

Block-wide mastic in St Fergus
St Fergus is within about 2 miles of the coast. Sea-facing elevations take driven rain and salt, and their mastic shows it before the sheltered sides do; plan inspections around that. Being in the east of Scotland, St Fergus gets less rain than the west coast. Cold mornings still limit when outside mastic can go on. Block programmes are built with that in mind
Older community buildings, St Fergus Parish Church and Churchyard among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.
St Fergus is about 4 miles north-west of Peterhead, in Aberdeenshire. Anywhere in AB42, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. St Fergus is one of 179 places we cover in Aberdeenshire. Aberdeen is covered too, around 30 miles from St Fergus.

Different surfaces, different methods
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Using the same products throughout keeps the estate consistent and easier to manage.
Tenement and older buildings
Older buildings, including Scotland’s sandstone tenements, have their own joint details. We look at the substrate before choosing a sealant.
Building owners, agents and FMs in St Fergus
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in St Fergus can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Aberdeenshire.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
What we can’t put right
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- External wall and movement joints
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
Do you need mastic sealing in St Fergus?
Topping up old mastic is a common shortcut. New sealant won’t grip failed sealant and the repair soon fails.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
- Damp patches beside frames
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
Owners near St Fergus can renew frame and external mastic block by block on one programme.

What else we do in St Fergus
Doing it in-house
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
On site: what to expect
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. For a building near St Fergus, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
Before we start on site
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Agree which areas must stay open

Related advice
Your questions answered
Our building in St Fergus is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near St Fergus?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work typically takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
