About our coloured sealant in Dores
Coloured sealant work ranges from a new shop fit to replacing failed joints on an existing building on sites in Dores. When replacing old joints, the new colour typically has to match what’s already there. If you have hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme and joints that need to match a new RAL frame colour, we can put it right, on shop-fit joinery and counters, office fit-out finishes and powder-coated and anodised frames alike. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Dores, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For work in and around Dores, we’d rather do everything on one trip: send photographs and a complete list so the right products and colours come on the day. Several jobs nearby can also be put together.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Dores as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

What happens if it’s left?
A mismatched or discoloured bead is a small detail that buyers, guests and clients notice, especially in shop fits and hotels. Putting it right costs little compared with the finishes around it, and it lifts the whole area. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Dores. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Our process
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking a day for a modest shop fit, and longer for a full building or several floors. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Dores. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
- Colour references, samples or photographs 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.
Getting the site ready
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Different surfaces, different methods
Brick and masonry
Brickwork joints usually look best in a colour close to the mortar or brick. We choose a suitable shade from the product’s range for the elevation.
Shop-fit and joinery finishes
Retail fit-outs mix many finishes in a small space. We choose sealant colours that suit each junction.
Questions about Dores
What site paperwork comes with a job in Dores?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Can you supply sealant in our brand colour for a site in Dores?
Yes, we can typically get close to most finishes from the product’s colour range. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
Do you guarantee your work?
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 while the building is occupied?
Yes, as long as we plan it. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Which sealant will you use?
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.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Quoting for work in Dores
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- How much existing material needs removing
- The size and state of each joint
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Whether the work must be split into stages
Pricing colour-matched joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Your programme or deadline
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

Common problems we fix in Dores
Failed sealant still has to be dealt with, whatever its colour: splits, adhesion loss and hardening all happen. We cut out and reseal in the agreed colour.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- A run of joints in mismatched shades
- Standard-colour sealant spoiling a high-end finish
- Failed coloured sealant that has split or peeled
- Hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme
For any commercial premises in Dores, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces.
