Mastic sealing in Templand, done properly
Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. Dates, areas and the order of work are agreed with you in advance so you can let residents know what is happening. Communal entrances and stairs stay usable while we work. We work on window and door perimeters on blocks, balcony and threshold joints and communal kitchens and washrooms, and what we’re called in for most is patchy repairs in mismatched sealant and water getting in round frames after rain. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Templand? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Travel to smaller places like Templand is planned so several buildings can be done on one trip. A list of addresses and photographs lets us quote for them together.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

What we’re called out for in Templand
In communal areas, joints take knocks from bins, bikes, buggies and deliveries, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Cleaning products add to the wear.
Typical triggers for a call:
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- Draughts at frames across a block
- Failed external movement joints
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
Buildings close to stations like Lockerbie station (4.3 miles south-east of Templand) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.

What happens if it’s left?
Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Templand, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

- 12-month guarantee on workmanship
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
Keeping the joints sound
After handover, these steps help:
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
Keep bins, bikes and deliveries away from low-level joints where you can. Damage at low level is the most common reason communal joints fail early.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
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.
Owners, agents and contractors
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

FAQs: Templand
Is Templand off your patch?
Not at all. Templand is within our area. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near Templand?
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 asbestos a concern with old mastic?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
How do you choose the sealant?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
What paperwork can you provide?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
