How we handle coloured sealant in Exnaboe
Coloured sealant is a finishing trade, so it usually comes late in a programme. We work around other trades and protect adjacent finishes, and we leave the area clean. A 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship. We work on office fit-out finishes, shop-fit joinery and counters and powder-coated and anodised frames, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme and untidy coloured beads with ragged edges. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Exnaboe, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Around smaller places such as Exnaboe, the commercial buildings tend to be hospitality, local shops, schools, health centres and converted rural buildings. Each has kitchens, washrooms and frames that depend on sound joints.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Questions about Exnaboe
Can you supply sealant in our brand colour for a site in Exnaboe?
Yes, sealants come in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references, cladding, stone or frames is a common request. Send colour references or photos and we’ll confirm what’s available for the product.
Is Exnaboe inside the area you cover, given it’s on an island?
Yes, Exnaboe is within the area we cover. We cover the whole of Scotland. We plan island jobs around the ferry and the forecast, and bring everything the job needs on the first crossing.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
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, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
When can the area be used after sealing?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
What the job involves on each surface
Powder-coated and anodised frames
Window, door and shopfront frames in RAL colours often need a sealant to suit. We compare the reference with the specified product’s colour range.
Paintable sealants
Some joints are better sealed with a paintable product and decorated. That only works where the joint and specification allow it because paint may crack where the joint moves.
Cost factors for colour-matched joints
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- How much there is to seal
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Access and working height
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What we need to price the job
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- The product your specification calls for
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
General trades versus a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Coloured sealant around Exnaboe: how the place shapes the job
Exnaboe is within about 1 mile of the coast. For shops, hotels and offices, that means frontage and frame joints that weather faster than they would inland. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. Island jobs, Exnaboe among them, are planned around the ferry and the forecast. A complete list with photographs means one crossing, not two.
A lasting commercial joint around Exnaboe begins with the old bead fully out and the faces clean and dry. Where a joint is on show in Exnaboe, we will check which shades the product offers before work starts.

From enquiry to sign-off
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled.

- 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.
- We prepare each joint, prime where needed and fit backing.
- The agreed colour is installed and tooled neatly.
Before we start on site

- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
Quotes
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a failed coloured joint risks more than appearance. Water through a split seal can stain or damage the surfaces next to it, so resealing protects the finishes as well as the look. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
