Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Protect fresh coloured sealant from dust and handling
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Clean coloured joints with mild products
- Check a trial length in real light
Expect some change in appearance over the years. Some fading is part of normal ageing outdoors.
Use one product and colour reference across a building or brand. Consistency makes future work simpler.
How we handle coloured sealant in Bridge of Alford
Coloured sealant is a finishing trade, so it normally comes late in a programme. We work around other trades and protect adjacent finishes, and snag any marks before we leave. A 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship. We work on hotel bathrooms and public areas, powder-coated and anodised frames and office fit-out finishes, and what we are called in for most is sealant that no longer suits recoated frames and shop fits that need consistent sealant colours across sites. Whoever orders the work in Bridge of Alford, the brief is usually the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Travel to smaller places such as Bridge of Alford is planned so the whole job is finished in one visit where possible, so it helps to have photographs and a full list first. Several jobs nearby can also be put together.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Questions we are asked in Bridge of Alford
Which documents can you supply for work in Bridge of Alford?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Bridge of Alford?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
Will you come and look before quoting?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.
What will the job cost?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Honest limits
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Cleaning or repairing the surrounding finishes
- A colour that never alters with age
- Materials with mixed tones that defy a single match
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Shop-fit joinery and counters
- Natural stone and brick
- Powder-coated and anodised frames
- Hotel bathrooms and public areas
- Cladding panels
- Office fit-out finishes
What happens if it’s left?
It’s far cheaper to approve a sample than to strip and redo a full run. A sample takes little time against redoing a whole elevation. Around smaller places like Bridge of Alford, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
