About our mastic sealing in Whitecraigs
Before work starts, most agents and landlords want the documents in order. For documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance. We work on external wall and movement joints, balcony and threshold joints and shopfronts below residential blocks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are communal area joints that look neglected and leaks at window and door perimeters. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Whitecraigs? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
For buildings around Whitecraigs, we group the work to keep travel and visits down. Send addresses and photographs for a quote covering the batch.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: 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.

Frames, entrances and external joints in Whitecraigs
The west of Scotland, where Whitecraigs is, gets more rain than the east. Exposed elevations on blocks take a soaking and their mastic shows it. Programmes allow for wet days.
Property owners at sites such as Thornliebank Industrial Estate, 1.5 miles north-west of Whitecraigs, can have mastic renewed between lettings. With historic buildings such as Pollok House, 3 miles to the north of Whitecraigs, in the wider area, owners of older properties around Whitecraigs should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Whitecraigs station (to the north-west of Whitecraigs) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.
Whitecraigs is about 1 mile west of Clarkston, in East Renfrewshire. Any commercial site in Whitecraigs is covered. Whitecraigs is one of 18 places in East Renfrewshire on our list.

Our process
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. For work around Whitecraigs, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- 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.
- The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
- 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.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
Getting a fixed quote
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us.

After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.
Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. Doing them together saves going back again and again.
Work for main contractors and building owners
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Cost factors for mastic joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Any access equipment needed
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Location, for remote and island sites
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you’re ready.
Details that help us quote
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- The product your specification calls for
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- The site address and postcode
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving failed external joints lets water reach the structure behind. Damp patches, stained plaster and decorating claims can follow, which is harder to deal with than resealing. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Whitecraigs, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
What you get with us
- 12 months’ guarantee on every job
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available

Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Landlords with commercial portfolios have shopfronts, office entrances and external joints to look after. A planned programme suits multi-building portfolios.
Communal areas
Low-level communal joints get damaged more than most, so they often need renewing sooner.
