Our commercial sealant contractors service in Moray

Most commercial buildings carry hundreds of metres of sealant that nobody thinks about until it fails, and on a working site that usually surfaces as a leak, a stain or a complaint from occupiers. We are commercial sealant applicators for FMs, managing agents, landlords and contractors. Our job is to diagnose the failure, remove the old bead and seal again using a product chosen for the movement and exposure. We work on kitchen worktops and splashbacks, window and door perimeters and washrooms and tea points, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks and a top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting.

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us.

  1. We start with the evidence: photographs, drawings or a look on site.
  2. A fixed quote follows, with removal and preparation included.
  3. We agree the order of work, access windows and site hours with you.
  4. The failed sealant comes out and the faces are prepared, with primer where required.
  5. Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
  6. Completed areas are signed off with you under our 12-month guarantee.

Around Elgin

We work on buildings around The Muckle Cross pub, Cooper Park and St Columba's Church of Scotland, among other places. Elgin has its own railway station: Elgin station. Nearby you will also find Dr Gray's Hospital (0.6 miles west) and St Giles Centre (less than half a mile north-west). Green spaces nearby include Loch Spynie.

Commercial premises across Moray

The commercial stock in Moray mixes older town-centre buildings with newer offices and units, in places such as Elgin, Buckie and Forres and beyond. Surfaces decide the sealant, from masonry to powder-coated frames and shop-fit panels.

Work in Moray comes under Scotland’s own building standards and technical handbooks. We seal to what has been specified, on every job. In the parts of Moray near the sea, the elevations facing the weather are where sealant gives up first.

Elgin: Shop fits at places like Elgin Retail Park, less than half a mile south-west of Elgin, leave counters, frontages and floor edges where the sealant colour is part of the finish. Shops and cafés around stations like Elgin station, less than half a mile south of Elgin, trade from early, so work is timed around them.

How the job changes by surface

Washrooms and toilets

Around WCs, urinals, vanity tops, IPS panels and cubicles, sealant is wet most of the day. Old sealant comes out and a sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in, phasing the rooms so not every toilet is closed at once.

Shop fronts and retail fit-outs

Retail work typically has to fit around trading. Tell us your trading hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them, phasing areas so the shop floor stays usable.

Quoting for work in Moray

Before we quote, we look at:

  • How much there is to seal
  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Access and working height
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Sending details for a quote

However big the job, the same details help:

  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

After the work

Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:

  • Check the asbestos register before anyone disturbs old sealant in an older building
  • Keep abrasive pads and scrapers off resealed joints
  • Note dates and locations of sealant work for future planning
  • Put external and wet-area joints on a regular inspection round

Let your cleaning contractor know what’s new. Scourers, blades and harsh products shorten a bead’s life, while a neutral cleaner and a soft cloth do no harm.

A failed external joint lets water in every time it rains. Behind a panel or frame, that water can sit unseen for a long time. Resealing early keeps the problem in the sealant and out of the building.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.

Why act early?

On many buildings the mastic was done by whichever trade was on site. A specialist applicator takes care of product choice, joint depth and preparation, and they’re where most failures begin. It shows over the following seasons rather than at handover.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
  • Their pre-qualification and accreditations
  • Their approach to joint depth and backing

Moray: questions and answers

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.

Who decides which product is used?

Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

How long does a job like this take?

We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

Does the weather affect the work?

Outside, 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. Internal work is rarely affected.

How do we get a quote?

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are typically enough to start. If a visit is needed we’ll book one, and a fixed quote follows.

Do you work for facilities managers and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, schedule and report back in the way that suits your process.

What guarantee do you give on resealing?

It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. Should a joint we sealed give trouble during those 12 months, let us know and we’ll look at it.
