Our commercial sealant contractors service in IV52
Mastic Doctor has been sealing joints for businesses and contractors since 2005, and the documents buyers ask for are ready: we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, our applicators hold CSCS cards, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. Let us know which site documents you need and they’ll be confirmed with the quote. We work on washrooms and tea points, external facade joints and movement joints in walls and floors, and the failures we are asked to look at most are frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away and water staining near frames, panels or ceilings.
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in.
- Site photos, drawings or a visit tell us what’s there and how it has failed.
- You get a fixed quote covering removal, preparation and the new sealant.
- We agree the order of work, access windows and site hours with you.
- Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
- Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
- Completed areas are signed off with you under our 12-month guarantee.
What affects the price in IV52
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Near you in Plockton
Around Plockton, our work takes us to commercial buildings near 1-6 Old Church Court and Plockton High School. The closest station to Plockton is Duncraig station, about 0.6 miles east of the centre. Nearby you will also find Duncraig Castle (0.7 miles east). Not far away are Loch Lundie.
Where commercial joints are in IV52
The commercial stock in IV52 mixes older town-centre buildings with newer offices and units, in places such as Plockton and beyond. Surfaces decide the sealant, from masonry to powder-coated frames and shop-fit panels.
Our area covers every Scottish council area, IV52 included. Travel is planned so the work is finished in as few trips as we can.
Plockton: Refits at hotels like Plockton Hotel, less than half a mile south-east of Plockton, bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day. For premises near Duncraig station, 0.6 miles east of Plockton, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.
What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- Removing asbestos-containing materials (a licensed or specialist contractor’s job)
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
For managing agents and facilities managers
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
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.
Why deal with it now?
Fixing joints complaint by complaint is a costly way to manage sealant. A planned programme groups work by building or area, cuts repeat visits and gives you a budget figure. We can help you prioritise, starting with the joints most likely to let water in.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
Common problems we fix in IV52
Every sealant joint is a maintenance item. Its life comes down to movement, UV and weather, how it’s cleaned, how much traffic passes it and what was used in the first place. On a busy commercial site several of those pile up at once, which is why regular inspection pays.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy
- Untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby
- Gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks
- Frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away
What affects the price in IV52
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- How much existing material needs removing
- How accessible the joints are
- Phasing around occupants
- How much there is to seal
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What to include in your enquiry
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Your programme or deadline
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- The type of building and who uses it
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings if you’d rather talk the job through.
IV52: questions and answers
Can you handle sealant work across several sites?
Yes. We take on runs of jobs across portfolios as well as single sites.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Do you work in IV52?
Yes. We cover IV52 and the rest of Highland, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Which site documents can you send us?
Send your site requirements with the enquiry. From you, we’ll need the asbestos information for older buildings and any site rules.
Will the building have to shut during the work?
It’s mostly about sequence: we agree access windows, phase the work and keep enough facilities open. Let us know what can’t close and we will work around it.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
