Working on commercial sites near Hogaland
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Hogaland. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. The east of Scotland, where Hogaland is, gets less rain than the west. Cold snaps still affect when external joints can be sealed. We plan external frontages and frames around that
Where a joint is on show in Hogaland, we’ll check which shades the product offers before work starts.

About our coloured sealant in Hogaland
Coloured sealant work ranges from a new shop fit to replacing failed joints on an existing building on sites in Hogaland. When replacing old joints, the new colour normally has to match what’s already there, especially on a listed or high-profile elevation. If you have coloured joints that have cracked with movement and standard-colour sealant spoiling a high-end finish, we can put it right, whatever the surface. For commercial sealant work in Hogaland, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Hogaland: 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 the quote explains what it covers.

Doing it in-house
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.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Hogaland can sit alongside others in a wider programme across the Shetland Islands.
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Hogaland
Failed sealant still has to be dealt with, whatever its colour: it can crack, peel or harden with age and movement. The fix is a full cut-out and a new bead in the right colour.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Colour changes after a rebrand or refit
- Standard-colour sealant spoiling a high-end finish
- Poorly tooled joints on visible finishes
- Patch repairs in several different colours
A lasting commercial joint around Hogaland begins with the old bead fully out and the faces clean and dry.
What your quote should include
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it

Your questions answered
Does the sea air around Hogaland change the choice of sealant?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Do you offer colour-matched sealant for buildings in Hogaland?
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 photographs and we will confirm what’s available for the product.
How soon can the area be used again?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit before quoting.
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.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Different surfaces, different methods
Cladding panels
Where panels vary in colour, the joint colour is agreed for the whole elevation. A neutral tone from the range often works best, and a sample settles it.
Paintable sealants
Paintable sealants suit internal, low-movement joints best. We will tell you if a joint needs a non-paintable product.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area.
