Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Ask contractors to check the colour before resealing
- Avoid abrasive pads on coloured sealant
- Agree the sealant colour early and write it into the specification
- Note which sealant colour was used where
Colours can soften with light and weathering. That is normal for exposed sealant, and resealing restores the look when the time comes.
Share the colour reference with anyone working on the finishes. That keeps new work in line with what’s there.
How we handle coloured sealant in Donside Village
On a finished interior or a high-quality elevation, the sealant is part of the look. Our coloured sealant work blends joints into the surrounding materials, from powder-coated frames to stone and brick. Performance decides the product; the colour is chosen from that product’s range. If you have poorly tooled joints on visible finishes and weathered sealant that no longer matches, we can help, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Donside Village, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In Scotland’s cities, commercial premises are packed closely, from stone-fronted offices to shops on the ground floor of tenement blocks. Shop units under tenements can bring the property factor into the picture when the work touches shared parts.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll come back to it.

- Powder-coated and anodised frames

From enquiry to sign-off
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. City jobs in Donside Village typically need parking and loading planned. Shared closes, stairs and the property factor may need to be part of the plan.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
- Where colour is critical, a sample bead can be agreed in a discreet spot.
- We take out the existing bead, clean the joints and fit backing.
- The coloured sealant is applied and tooled with clean, masked edges.
Getting the site ready
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Let building users know which areas are affected

Common questions from Donside Village clients
Can being near the sea in Donside Village affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Does a hotel in Donside Village need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. The plan is built around your bookings.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
Signs you need coloured sealant in Donside Village
Exposure takes its toll on colour. UV, grime and weathering alter how a bead looks after a few years, so joints that once matched no longer do. Resealing is the chance to reset the colour.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification
- Smeared sealant on stone or joinery
- Previous reseals that don’t match the original
- White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
If you have premises on more than one site, say at Aberdeen Innovation Park and St Machar Industrial Estate, one contractor and one quote can cover both.

Coloured sealant in Donside Village: the local picture
Donside Village lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Buildings near the sea put their external joints through more driven rain, with salt air nearer the beach. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. A 2-mile radius around Donside Village takes in plenty of hotels. In hotels, sealant shows everywhere, from bathroom joints to reception counters, so colour and a clean finish matter; work is planned so the hotel keeps trading.
In hotels such as Northern Hotel (0.8 miles south of Donside Village), refurbishments usually mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes. On a business park such as Aberdeen Innovation Park, under half a mile north of Donside Village, sealant work tends to follow fit-outs: receptions, tea points, washrooms and frame perimeters.

What else we do in Donside Village
Leave it or put it right?
Agreeing the colour before work starts avoids paying twice. A short trial bead costs very little. In Donside Village, as across Scotland, rain finds any gap, so a split or hardened joint lets water into the wall. Resealing promptly protects the stone and the interior.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
