Coloured sealant in Balgowan
Coloured sealant work ranges from a new shop fit to replacing failed joints on an existing building on sites across Perth and Kinross. When replacing old joints, the new colour usually has to match what’s already there. If you are dealing with joints that need to match a new RAL frame colour and marked sealant in hotel bathrooms, we can put it right, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Balgowan, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Balgowan: sealant needs a dry joint and the right temperature, so external work has a weather window built in. Indoor work isn’t held up by rain.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Balgowan as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

From enquiry to sign-off
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Balgowan. We’ll confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
- A short trial length can be approved before the full run on visible work.
- We remove the existing bead, clean the faces and set the depth.
- We apply the agreed colour and tool it neatly, with masking where the finish needs it.
Getting the site ready
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

What sets the cost
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Access and working height
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What we need to price the job
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- When you need the work done
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Looking after the joints
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Use one colour standard across multi-site work
- Check a trial length in real light
- Protect fresh coloured sealant from dust and handling
Clean coloured joints with mild, non-abrasive products. Harsh chemicals and scouring can change how the colour looks over time.
Plan resealing of visible joints before they look tired. A planned reseal avoids a run of patch repairs.
Doing it in-house
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Your questions answered
What site paperwork comes with a job in Balgowan?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. We hold £5m public liability insurance, are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators are CSCS-carded.
Is Balgowan too far out for you?
Not at all. Balgowan is within our area. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Do you need to see the site first?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.
Do you match sealant to RAL colours?
Yes. Give us the RAL reference and we will check it against the product’s range. You’ll see the nearest options.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
Yes, with some planning. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Why deal with it now?
Resealing a full run gives a consistent colour. Piecemeal repairs over several years tend to drift in colour, and the patchwork effect grows. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, so it’s worth renewing joints around Balgowan before they leak.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.
