About our coloured sealant in Inchmarlo
Colour is often written into the specification, by RAL reference or by matching a sample. Most sealant types are made in a broad range of standard colours, so we check what the specified product is made in at quote stage. We don’t promise an exact custom match, but we will show you the closest options. We work on powder-coated and anodised frames, hotel bathrooms and public areas and natural stone and brick, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are weathered sealant that no longer matches and marked sealant in hotel bathrooms. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Inchmarlo is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
For work in and around Inchmarlo, 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.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Leave it or put it right?
A brand roll-out or multi-site fit-out benefits from a consistent sealant colour. Fixing the colour reference at the start keeps every site the same. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Inchmarlo. Send photos and we will quote for everything together.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

Advice
Questions we’re asked in Inchmarlo
Do hotels near Inchmarlo have to close for sealant work?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Is Inchmarlo too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit.
Shops, offices and hotels in and around Inchmarlo

Hotel refurbishments are where a matched sealant colour earns its place: bathroom, bar and reception joints have to sit with the finishes.

General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
When to call us in Inchmarlo
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.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Weathered sealant that no longer matches
- Smeared sealant on stone or joinery
- A run of joints in mismatched shades
- Marked sealant in hotel bathrooms
Refits at hotels like Tor-na-Coille Hotel (1.1 miles south-east of Inchmarlo) bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
When it isn’t the sealant
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- A guaranteed perfect match to every finish
- Paint over sealant on joints that move too much
- Repairing damaged frames or cladding
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think.
