About our external mastic in Tulloch
Short cuts in external joints show up within a season or two. Overfilled joints, missing backing rod and sealant laid over old sealant all tend to fail early. We strip the joint back and start again. Common call-outs are for gaps where render, brick and frames meet and weeds or debris growing in open joints, on façade panels, concrete & block and joints between brick and frames.
Stone walls need a stone-friendly sealant, as acetoxy products can attack some stone. Newer houses need their movement joints and roofline trims kept sound.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Cutting new joints into brickwork, which is building work rather than sealant work
- Structural movement, which needs a surveyor or engineer
- Cracked brickwork or render that needs a builder or plasterer
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.

What else we do in Tulloch
Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Brickwork movement joints
Clay brickwork grows slightly over its life and moves with the weather. The movement joint takes that up, so its sealant has to stay flexible.
Cladding and façade panels
Panels heat up and cool down quickly, so the joint sealant has to cope with frequent movement. The sealant is chosen with that in mind.
How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We inspect the joints and agree which need resealing and how they’ll be reached.
- We cut out the failed sealant and rake out any dirt or growth.
- Both sides are cleaned back to sound material and primed if needed.
- We push in closed-cell backing rod so the sealant is the right depth and bonds to the sides only.
- The new sealant, chosen to suit the brick or render, is applied and tooled to a neat finish.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Walls and rooflines in Tulloch
Plenty of Scottish homes have harled walls, and joints where harling meets other materials need a sealant that can grip and flex. Private landlords in Scotland must meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping a home wind and watertight, and sound outside sealant is part of that.
For landlords with property near Perth station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. If you look after a building such as Bertha Park High School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Common questions in Tulloch
Do you cover smaller places like Tulloch?
Yes, Tulloch is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Perth station. Can you help?

Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
How much does external mastic cost in Tulloch?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Do you work at height?
That depends on how high the joints are and the ground below. Low-level joints are straightforward; for higher work, tell us about the building and we will confirm what’s needed.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix overflowing gutters above sealed joints
- Show decorators and builders where the movement joints are
- Keep soil, plants and ivy away from the joints
- Act on the first splits you see
Keep pressure washers away from the sealant. High-pressure water can lift the edges.
An open movement joint lets rain into the wall every time it pours. Over time it can mean damp inside, stained render or frost-damaged brick which cost more to put right than the joint.
