Coloured sealant in Curriehill
Shop fits, hotels and offices are where colour-matched sealant earns its place. A grey bead on a black shopfront or a white line against oak looks like a defect. We pick a colour from the product’s range that sits with the finish. If you have discoloured joints on a visible elevation and untidy coloured beads with ragged edges, we can help. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Curriehill it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
For a job around Curriehill, the Scottish weather is part of the planning: sealant needs a dry joint and the right temperature, so external work has a weather window built in. Indoor work isn’t held up by rain.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Any access equipment needed
- Location, for remote and island sites
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Details that help us quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
Common problems we fix in Curriehill
Mould and staining discolour coloured joints in some areas. Mould that has grown into sealant normally can’t be cleaned out, so the joint is replaced.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Previous reseals that don’t match the original
- Smeared sealant on stone or joinery
- Hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme
- Dirty, discoloured joints in public areas
Offices at parks like Pentland Gait Office Park, 1.5 miles to the north-east of Curriehill, have receptions, kitchens and glazed partitions where a tidy joint matters.

Surface by surface
Paintable sealants
Paintable sealants suit internal, low-movement joints best. If the joint needs a product that can’t be painted, we say so.
Shop-fit and joinery finishes
Counters, display units and wall linings are seen close up. Clean masking and neat tooling matter as much as colour.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Curriehill
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Curriehill: questions and answers
Can you work at a site such as Pentland Gait Office Park, by Curriehill?
Yes. We cover Curriehill and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Pentland Gait Office Park. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Curriehill too far out for you?
Not at all. Curriehill is within our area. We cover the whole of Scotland. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work normally takes about the same time as any other sealant work, plus a little longer if a sample bead is agreed first. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Can we specify the colour by RAL number?
Yes. Many specifications give the sealant colour as a RAL number. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
