Coloured sealant in Brinian
On a finished interior or a high-quality elevation, the sealant is part of the look. We install coloured and colour-matched sealant so joints sit quietly against cladding, stone, brick, frames and shop-fit finishes, on commercial projects around Brinian. Performance decides the product; the colour is chosen from that product’s range. If you’re dealing with hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme and dirty, discoloured joints in public areas, we can put it right. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Brinian tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
For work in and around Brinian, we’d rather do everything on one trip: send photos and a complete list so the right products and colours come on the day. Several jobs nearby can also be put together.
Work we carry out in the Orkney Islands comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will come back to it.

Your questions answered
Can you supply sealant in our brand colour for a site in Brinian?
Yes, sealants come in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references, cladding, stone or frames is a common request. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
Do you work on the island where Brinian is?
Yes. Islands are part of our area, Brinian included. We plan island jobs around the ferry and the forecast, and bring everything the job needs on the first crossing.
Will you quote for a small job?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Can you fit around our working hours?
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.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work usually takes a few hours or a phased programme, depending on joint lengths and how many colours are involved, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Brinian is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about 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.
- The coloured sealant is applied and tooled with clean, masked edges.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Let building users know which areas are affected

Advice
Cost factors for colour-matched joints
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The total length or number of joints
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- How accessible the joints are
- Removal of failed or old sealant
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Your programme or deadline
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
What Brinian’s businesses ask us to seal
With the shore within about 1 mile, Brinian counts as a coastal location. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. We choose a product rated for the exposure, then confirm the colours available for it. Work on Brinian has to fit the ferry timetable and the forecast. Colour references and photos up front let us bring the right sealants first time.
Where a joint is on show in Brinian, we will check which shades the product offers before work starts.

After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Use one colour standard across multi-site work
- Keep harsh solvents away from visible joints
- Put the colour reference on the finishes schedule
- Look at the cured colour before the full run
Note the sealant type and colour on the building file. Future repairs can then use the same colour, avoiding a patchwork.
Approve a sample where colour really matters. A sample in real light shows how it will look.
When to call us in Brinian
A change of finish can leave existing sealant mismatched. Refurbishments and rebrands often bring a new colour scheme.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- A run of joints in mismatched shades
- Hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme
- Marked sealant in hotel bathrooms
- A bead that fights the cladding or frame colour
For any commercial premises in Brinian, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces.

What we can’t put right
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Colour variation across natural stone or brick that no single shade can match
- A colour that never alters with age
- Custom-mixed sealant colours
