What the job involves on each surface
Natural stone
Stone has variation, so the aim is a colour that sits naturally against it. A stone-safe neutral-cure product is used in the closest available colour.
Hotel interiors
In hotels, sealant shows in rooms, bathrooms and front-of-house. Wet-area sealants come in colours other than white too, so bathrooms can match the tiling or stone.
About our coloured sealant in Braeside
Window, door and shopfront frames in RAL finishes often need a sealant to suit. The frame colour is checked against the sealant’s standard range, and the nearest option is agreed with you. If the range has no close colour, a paintable sealant can sometimes be overpainted, where the specification allows. The enquiries we see most involve failed coloured sealant that has split or peeled and standard-colour sealant spoiling a high-end finish, on powder-coated and anodised frames, shop-fit joinery and counters and hotel bathrooms and public areas. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Braeside first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Working in a Scottish city means planning around loading rules, shared entrances and busy pavements. Give us your access times and any building rules and we will fit the work around them.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Our process
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. City jobs in Braeside normally need parking and loading planned. Shared closes, stairs and the property factor may need to be part of the plan.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the finishes.
- We send the closest colours from the product’s range.
- The programme and access are agreed, including any phasing.
- We prepare each joint, prime where needed and fit backing.
- We seal in the approved colour and tool it smooth.
Before we start on site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Aftercare for building managers
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Don’t let trades patch coloured joints with a random sealant
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Put the colour reference on the finishes schedule
- Reseal whole runs rather than patching single joints
If other trades disturb a coloured joint, ask them to tell you rather than patch it. Wrong-colour patches are obvious, undoing the look you paid for.
Approve a sample where colour really matters. Seeing the cured colour in place avoids surprises.
Questions we are asked in Braeside
Does a coastal location like Braeside affect which sealant is used?
It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Do hotels near Braeside have to close for sealant work?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Will the colour fade over time?
Some change is normal outdoors. UV and grime can soften or alter the colour, and resealing brings the look back.
Do you use coloured sanitary silicone?
Yes. Sanitary silicones with anti-mould additives come in a range of colours too. We check the colour range of the sanitary product specified and agree it with you.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Will the sealant be an exact match to our finish?
No, not always. We match as closely as the product’s range allows and can agree a sample bead first.
Do you do a sample bead?
Yes. We can fit a sample into the programme before the main run.
Working on commercial sites near Braeside
Braeside lies within about 3 miles of the sea. Buildings near the sea put their external joints through more driven rain, with salt air nearer the beach. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. Braeside is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Winter frost and damp frames still stop outside sealing on some days. Outside work is booked with that in mind
Offices and shops close to stations such as Aberdeen station, 2 miles to the north-east of Braeside, tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours. In hotels such as Palm Court Hotel (less than half a mile north of Braeside), refurbishments typically mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes. For a retailer at a site such as Garthdee Retail Park, 1 mile south-east of Braeside, the joints clients see are as much part of the fit-out as the shelving.

What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
