Aftercare for building managers
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Ask contractors to check the colour before resealing
- Agree the sealant colour early and write it into the specification
- Protect fresh coloured sealant from dust and handling
- Avoid abrasive pads on coloured sealant
Check visible joints during routine inspections. Look for splits, lifting edges and staining and deal with problems early.
Include coloured joints in a planned maintenance cycle. A planned reseal avoids a run of patch repairs over the years.
Coloured sealant in Gergask
We can agree a short trial length before the full run. Sealant can look slightly different once it has cured, and again in different light, so seeing it in place helps. Tell us who needs to approve the colour and we’ll plan for it. If you’re dealing with shop fits that need consistent sealant colours across sites and weathered sealant that no longer matches, we can put it right. For commercial sealant work in Gergask, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
For a job around Gergask, the Scottish weather is part of the planning: outside joints need dry, frost-clear surfaces, so we agree a window with some give in it. Indoor work isn’t held up by rain.
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.

What sets the cost
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Phasing around occupants
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- The site’s rules and procedures
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Sending details for a quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Your questions answered
Which documents can you supply for work in Gergask?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We hold £5m public liability insurance, are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators are CSCS-carded.
Can the sealant on our Gergask premises match the finishes?
Yes, sealants come in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references, cladding, stone or frames is a common request. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, as long as we plan it. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Can weather delay the job?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
What hours do you work?
We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.

Signs you need coloured sealant in Gergask
Internal joints can stain from cleaning products, spills or mould. Mould that has grown into sealant usually can’t be cleaned out, so replacement is the fix.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification
- Coloured joints that have cracked with movement
- Old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded
- White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
For a hotel such as Laggan Gaskmore Hotel, which lies east of Gergask, the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.

On site: what to expect
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For work around Gergask, we aim for one trip, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
- We compare the target colour with the colours available.
- The nearest colour is agreed, with a sample bead where needed.
- The existing bead comes out, then faces are cleaned and backed.
- Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
- We remove the masking and walk the finished joints with you.
Before we start on site
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Should maintenance staff do it?
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
When something else is needed
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Preventing all fading from sunlight and weathering
- Custom-mixed sealant colours
- Colour variation across natural stone or brick that no single shade can match
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
