Coloured sealant in Caddonfoot, done properly
Colour-matched joints are often among the last items before handover. We work around other trades and protect adjacent finishes. A 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship. Site teams most often ask us about previous reseals that don’t match the original and untidy coloured beads with ragged edges, on shop-fit joinery and counters, office fit-out finishes and natural stone and brick. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Caddonfoot? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
For work in and around Caddonfoot, we’d rather do everything on one trip, so it helps to have photographs and a full list first. Several jobs nearby can also be put together.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Caddonfoot: questions and answers
Is Caddonfoot off your patch?
No. Places such as Caddonfoot are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Caddonfoot?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Send colour references or photos and we’ll confirm what’s available for the product.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
Yes, with some planning. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted 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. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
How a job runs
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Caddonfoot. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
- Your RAL reference, sample or photo is checked against that product’s colours.
- The nearest colour is agreed, with a sample bead where needed.
- We cut out the existing bead, clean and set the depth.
- We mask, seal and tool to a clean line.
- We remove the masking and walk the finished joints with you.
Preparing the site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
Request a quote
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Shops, offices and hotels in and around Caddonfoot
The east of Scotland, where Caddonfoot is, gets less rain than the west. Cold snaps still affect when external joints can be sealed. We plan external frontages and frames around that
Shop fits at places like Comely Bank Mill Retail Park, 2.5 miles to the north-east of Caddonfoot, leave counters, frontages and floor edges where the sealant colour is part of the finish. For premises near Galashiels station, 2.9 miles east of Caddonfoot, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.
Caddonfoot is about 3 miles west of Galashiels, in the Scottish Borders. Across the TD1 postcode area, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed.

What else we do in Caddonfoot
Common problems we fix in Caddonfoot
On some projects the colour was never agreed, or a different product was swapped in. The joint may work perfectly but look out of place, and a client or designer asks for it to be redone.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Joints that need to match a new RAL frame colour
- Stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms
- Old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded
- Poorly tooled joints on visible finishes
In hotels such as Clovenfords Hotel, which lies north of Caddonfoot, refurbishments normally mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes.

Quoting for work in Caddonfoot
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- The total length or number of joints
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Any access equipment needed
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
What to include in your enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Your programme or deadline
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work

Work for main contractors and building owners
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Maintenance after handover
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Avoid abrasive pads on coloured sealant
- Check a trial length in real light
- Standardise colours across a portfolio
- Note which sealant colour was used where
Note the sealant type and colour on the building file. Future repairs can then use the same colour, with no guesswork.
Use one product and colour reference across a building or brand. It keeps repairs and new sites consistent.
What the job involves on each surface
Hotel interiors
In hotels, sealant shows in rooms, bathrooms and front-of-house. Sanitary silicone comes in colours too, so bathrooms can match the tiling or stone.
Cladding panels
Multi-coloured cladding needs a joint colour that works across it. A neutral tone from the range often works best.
