Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Our process
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Wester Balgedie. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
- Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.
Getting the site ready
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

How we handle mastic sealing in Wester Balgedie
On a residential block, the work happens around people’s lives. Dates, areas and the order of work are agreed with you in advance, giving you what you need to notify residents. Communal entrances and stairs stay usable throughout. We work on balcony and threshold joints, communal entrances and stairwells and shopfronts below residential blocks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are worn sealant at communal door frames and cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Wester Balgedie, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Around Wester Balgedie, outside mastic waits for dry weather and the right temperature. We agree a window with some flexibility.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving failed external joints lets water reach the structure behind. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes and those cost far more to put right. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Wester Balgedie before they leak.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Questions about Wester Balgedie
Is Wester Balgedie too far out for you?
No. Places such as Wester Balgedie are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
What site paperwork comes with a job in Wester Balgedie?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, backed by public liability insurance.
How do you choose the sealant?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
What about access for upper-floor joints?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we’ll confirm the approach in the quote.

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

When to bring in a specialist

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
