Our coloured sealant service in Aberdeen

We can agree a short trial length before the full run. Cured sealant may look a shade different from the wet bead, and lighting changes it again, so approving a sample on site is worth doing. Tell us who needs to approve the colour and we will plan for it. The enquiries we see most involve coloured joints that have cracked with movement and discoloured joints on a visible elevation, across natural stone and brick, powder-coated and anodised frames and hotel bathrooms and public areas.

On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes about the same time as any other sealant work, plus a little longer if a sample bead is agreed first.

The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
Colour references, samples or photos of the finish are checked against the product’s range.
A short trial length can be approved before the full run on visible work.
We take out the existing bead, clean the joints and fit backing.
We apply the agreed colour and tool it neatly, with masking where the finish needs it.

What you will pay

The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

Where commercial joints are in Aberdeen

From Rosemount, Berryden and Ferryhill outwards, Aberdeen has a broad spread of commercial premises: shops, offices, hotels, restaurants and units. We cover the whole area, so occupiers with several sites can use one contractor and one point of contact.

Work in Aberdeen comes under Scotland’s own building standards and technical handbooks. Our part is sealing to the specification, whatever the building. Parts of Aberdeen lie on or near the coast, where wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. Product choice and joint preparation matter more there.

Aberdeen: A hotel such as Skene House Apartment Hotel - Whitehall, under half a mile to the south-east of Aberdeen, shows how much sealant a hospitality building has on show, from bathroom joints to the bar. If you have premises on more than one site, say at Berryden Retail Park and Kittybrewster Shopping Centre, one contractor and one quote can cover both.

Quoting for work in Aberdeen

What shapes the price:

How much existing material needs removing
The total length or number of joints
Distance, for remote addresses
Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants

There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Before you send an enquiry

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:

Whether an asbestos survey exists
Specification clauses that apply
Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
Access details, including height

For a fixed quote, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.

Why it fails

Exposure takes its toll on colour. Sunlight, dirt and pollution can darken, yellow or chalk the surface, and an old match drifts. Resealing is the chance to reset the colour.

Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:

Smeared sealant on stone or joinery
Sealant that no longer suits recoated frames
Coloured joints that have cracked with movement
Old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded

Looking after the joints

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

Note which sealant colour was used where
Put the colour reference on the finishes schedule
Don’t let trades patch coloured joints with a random sealant
Avoid piecemeal repairs on coloured joints

Include coloured sealant in planned building checks. Look for splits, lifting edges and staining and deal with problems early.

Standardise the sealant colour on multi-site work. It keeps repairs and new sites consistent and easier to manage.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.

How the job changes by surface

Cladding panels

Where panels vary in colour, the joint colour is agreed for the whole elevation. A neutral tone from the range often works best, and a sample settles it.

Brick and masonry

Brickwork joints typically look best in a colour close to the mortar or brick. We choose a suitable shade from the product’s range for the elevation.

Aberdeen: questions and answers

Do you cover Aberdeen?

Yes. We cover Aberdeen. To discuss a job, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

How do you choose the sealant?

The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.

When can you be on site?

We are in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.

Is coloured sealant weaker than white?

Colour is a choice within a product’s range, not a separate type of sealant. Preparation, backing and tooling are what make it last, whatever the colour.

Can we see a sample before the full job?

Yes. Where colour is critical, we can agree a short sample bead in a discreet spot. The colour can shift a little as it cures, so seeing it in place helps.

How do I request a quote?

The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.

How long will the new sealant last?

There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
