External mastic in Kinlochmore, done properly
We’re ARBOMaster approved applicators, and each external joint gets a sealant suited to it. Porous or awkward surfaces are primed where the sealant needs it. We work on brickwork movement joints, joints between brick and frames and copings & trims, and common reasons people get in touch are old sealant gone brittle and cracked and failed sealant between panels on a façade.
Across smaller places in Scotland, stone and harled cottages, farm buildings and newer houses often stand exposed to wind and rain. Outside joints on exposed walls work hard, so they need a sealant that moves with the building.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t solve:
- Structural movement, which needs a surveyor or engineer
- Render that’s blown, hollow or coming away
- Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Leave it or put it right?
Low-modulus sealants stretch easily, so they put less strain on the joint edges. That protects surfaces like brick, render and concrete. Too stiff a sealant can pull at the edges and break them. In an older home around Kinlochmore, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

Your questions about external mastic in Kinlochmore
Is external mastic in a coastal place like Kinlochmore any different?
Coastal weather is harder on outside sealant: there’s more wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Choosing the right sealant for the frame and wall, laid at the right depth, helps it last.
Is Kinlochmore in your area for external mastic?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Kinlochmore is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
When to call us in Kinlochmore
If plants are growing out of a joint, the sealant has normally failed or was never there. Dirt and roots then trap moisture in the joint and speed up the damage.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving
- Weeds or debris growing in open joints
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
- Failed sealant between panels on a façade
In and around Kinlochmore, as anywhere, good external mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Walls and rooflines in Kinlochmore
Kinlochmore is close to the coast, and homes near the sea take more wind-driven rain, with salt in the air closer to the shore. Both are hard on movement joints and outside wall joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Harled (roughcast) walls are common in Scotland, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex.
For jobs in and around Kinlochmore, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. Somewhere like Kinlochmore may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First we look over the joints with you, agree which to renew and talk through access.
- Old sealant and any debris are cut and raked out.
- We clean both faces of the joint and prime them where the product calls for it.
- We push in closed-cell backing rod so the sealant is the right depth and bonds to the sides only.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied and tooled in a colour to suit the wall.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
