External mastic for homes and businesses in Ballinluig

Where two different materials meet, such as brick and render or blockwork and metal, they move at different rates. A flexible sealant bridges the two. Typical jobs include moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left and leaking joints around cladding and façade panels, across façade panels, concrete & block and brickwork movement joints.

Stone walls need a stone-friendly sealant, as acetoxy products can attack some stone. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ballinluig

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.

For anyone letting property in or around Ballinluig, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. Outside jobs in Ballinluig need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.

  1. Each joint is checked and the colour of the new sealant agreed.
  2. Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
  3. Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
  4. We prime the faces where required.
  5. A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Loose or hollow render, which needs re-rendering
  • Cutting new joints into brickwork, which is building work rather than sealant work
  • Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint

If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Where we work in Ballinluig

  • Brickwork movement joints
  • Joints between brick and frames
  • Render & cladding joints
  • Concrete & block
  • Copings & trims
  • Façade panels

What we are called out for in Ballinluig

Sunlight, wet weather and frost wear exterior sealant down. In time it goes hard, crazes on the surface and stops stretching, so the next time the wall moves, it splits or pulls away.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Damp patches traced to an open external joint
  • Weeds or debris growing in open joints
  • Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
  • Brick movement joints where the sealant has split

For landlords with property near Pitlochry station, failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies.

What your quote should include

  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • How long the guarantee is

Our hiring checklist

Different surfaces, different methods

Cladding and façade panels

Where a cladding system has its own specified sealant, we follow it or an approved alternative. Send us any details you have about the façade.

Copings and trims

Joints in copings, parapets and trims are exposed to the worst of the weather. Each is resealed with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ballinluig

Done well, a resealed joint is a neat, straight line that suits the wall. A hurried job with smeared edges and no backing looks worse and fails sooner, so it pays to do it properly once. Around Ballinluig, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why book with us

  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • Domestic, commercial and hotel work
  • Every job guaranteed for a year
  • Old sealant always removed completely

FAQs for Ballinluig

Will you come out to Ballinluig?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

I let a flat near Pitlochry station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.

Do you work at height?

It depends on the building. Tell us the height, the number of joints and what’s below them.

Should I point up the gap in my brickwork?

No. A mortar-filled joint cannot move, so the movement cracks the wall elsewhere. Use a flexible sealant with backing rod.

How much does external mastic cost in Ballinluig?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Will the new joint stand out?

We choose a sealant colour to suit the brick, stone or render. There’s a wide choice of exterior colours.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Walls and rooflines in Ballinluig

Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that. Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and where harling meets frames, pipes and other materials, the joint needs a flexible sealant that grips a rough surface.

Homes close to Logierait Parish Church include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.
