Why act early in Blackhills

Across a chain of shops or hotels, consistency matters. Setting one product and colour for every site avoids variation from one fit-out to the next. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Blackhills, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.

There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Why appoint us

  • A range of standard colours, depending on the product
  • CHAS accredited
  • Old sealant cut out, never sealed over
  • Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months

About our coloured sealant in Blackhills

Colour is often written into the specification, by RAL reference or by matching a sample. Standard sealant ranges cover many colours, so we check what the specified product is made in. An exact bespoke match can’t always be promised, so we talk you through the nearest colours. We work on powder-coated and anodised frames, office fit-out finishes and cladding panels, and what we are called in for most is failed coloured sealant that has split or peeled and smeared sealant on stone or joinery. For commercial sealant work in Blackhills, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.

For work in and around Blackhills, we’d rather do everything on one trip, so it helps to have photos and a full list first. Several jobs nearby can also be put together.

A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. If an installation problem shows up, call 01277 525 020 or email us and we will arrange a return visit.

Common problems we fix in Blackhills

When frames are recoated or a space is rebranded, the old joints may no longer suit. Refurbishments and rebrands often bring a new colour scheme that the sealant has to follow.

Clients normally get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:

  • Previous reseals that don’t match the original
  • Smeared sealant on stone or joinery
  • Marked sealant in hotel bathrooms
  • White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish

A unit on an estate like Troves Industrial Estate (to the west of Blackhills) normally has an office front, a trade counter and staff facilities with joints of their own.

  • How they’ll work around occupants
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Different surfaces, different methods

Brick and masonry

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

Hotel interiors

Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Your questions answered

Do you cover business parks and estates near Blackhills, such as Troves Industrial Estate?

Yes. We cover Blackhills and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Troves Industrial Estate. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Is Blackhills too far out for you?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

How much does the work cost?

That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote.

Are you CHAS accredited?

Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

Can weather delay the job?

For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.

What hours do you work?

We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.

What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?

Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.

How a job runs

At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Blackhills is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.

  1. First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
  2. Your RAL reference, sample or photo is checked against that product’s colours.
  3. You approve the colour, on site if it’s critical.
  4. The existing bead comes out, then faces are cleaned and backed.
  5. Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
  6. Masking comes off and the work is checked with you.

Before we start on site

  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Tell staff and tenants when we will be in

General trades versus a specialist

Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Some joints are best left to specialists: 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.
