Why it’s worth doing now in Broughton
Matching new joints to the existing ones is easier when the whole run is done together. Piecemeal repairs over several years tend to drift in colour, and the patchwork effect grows. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

How we handle coloured sealant in Broughton
We can agree a short trial length before the full run. Cured sealant may look a shade different from the wet bead, and lighting changes it again. Let us know who signs off colour, and we’ll fit the sample into the programme. We work on hotel bathrooms and public areas, powder-coated and anodised frames and office fit-out finishes, and the failures we are asked to look at most are weathered sealant that no longer matches and dirty, discoloured joints in public areas. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Broughton it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Travel to smaller places such as Broughton is planned so the whole job is finished in one visit where possible, so it helps to have photographs and a full list first. If neighbouring businesses have work too, the visits can be grouped.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will come back to it.

On site: what to expect
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. 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. Where we can, we combine work around Broughton with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the finishes.
- We send the closest colours from the product’s range.
- Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
- Joints are prepared, primed where specified and backed.
- We seal in the approved colour and tool it smooth.

Broughton: questions and answers
What site paperwork comes with a job in Broughton?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Broughton?
Yes, we can normally get close to most finishes from the product’s colour range. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
When can you be on site?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we will schedule the work to suit. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
Typically, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use.
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes. It runs for twelve months and covers how we prepared and sealed the joints, though not damage or work by other trades.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
Who decides which product is used?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.

What we can’t put right
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We’ll tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Materials with mixed tones that defy a single match
- Preventing all fading from sunlight and weathering
- Restoring stained stone or masonry next to old sealant
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Natural stone and brick
- Shop-fit joinery and counters
- Cladding panels
- Hotel bathrooms and public areas
- Powder-coated and anodised frames
- Office fit-out finishes
Work for main contractors and building owners
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
Working on commercial sites near Broughton
The east of Scotland, where Broughton is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still hold up external sealing. In winter, outside joints are timed for when surfaces are dry and within the product’s range
Where a joint is on show in Broughton, we will check which shades the product offers before work starts. For any commercial premises in Broughton, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces.
Broughton is about 17 miles south-west of Penicuik, in the Scottish Borders. We send applicators to Broughton for colour-matched joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Our the Scottish Borders coverage takes in 91 places, large and small. Edinburgh is covered too, around 24 miles from Broughton.

Quoting for work in Broughton
To price the job, we consider:
- How much existing material needs removing
- The size and state of each joint
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Before you send an enquiry
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- What the building is and how it’s used
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
Need a figure for a tender or a budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we’ll return a fixed quote you can plan around. For a chat about it beforehand, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Settle the colour with the designer at the start
- Brief cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Keep harsh solvents away from visible joints
- Reseal whole runs rather than patching single joints
Give the sealant its full cure time before cleaning or handling the area. Fresh coloured beads show fingerprints and dust more easily.
Ask for a trial bead on high-profile areas. Seeing the cured colour in place avoids surprises.
