The preparation is the same whatever the wall: clean joint faces and the right depth. If you have movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant and weathered mastic that no longer stretches, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Why act early in Stewartfield
Sealing over the top of old mastic does not hold for long. New sealant doesn’t bond well to old, weathered sealant, so we always take the old sealant out. In an older home around Stewartfield, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building, including the tidy-up. Outdoor work around Stewartfield depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- We start by walking round the building and agreeing the joints and the access.
- Every bit of old sealant and any mortar or debris is cut out.
- The faces are brushed clean and primed where the product requires it.
- We fit closed-cell backing rod to control the depth.
- We apply the sealant, tool it and check the whole run.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Surface by surface
Cladding and façade panels
Where a cladding system has its own specified sealant, we follow it or an approved alternative. Tell us what the building has when you get in touch.
Concrete and blockwork
Big joints in concrete need careful depth control. Backing rod sized to the joint sets it.
Outside joints around Stewartfield
Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex. Under the Repairing Standard, private landlords in Scotland have to keep homes wind and watertight, and failed outside joints work against that.
Letting a property close to East Kilbride station? Then split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside. Managing a site like Duncanrig Secondary School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Look over the joints every year, ideally after winter
- Wash walls gently around the sealant
- Tell anyone working on the walls about the movement joints
- Clear growth from the base of walls and joints
Make sure anyone working on the wall later knows where the movement joints are. They must stay as flexible joints, never rendered or pointed over.
Gaps, plants or missing sealant in a joint are worth getting looked at. Earlier resealing means a smaller job and a better result.
