Quoting for work in Janetstown
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Which sealant the job calls for
- How much existing material needs removing
- Working within restricted access windows
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The postcode of the building
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
How we handle coloured sealant in Janetstown
Window, door and shopfront frames in RAL finishes often need a sealant to suit. We compare the RAL reference with the colours made for the specified sealant. If the range has no close colour, a paintable sealant can sometimes be overpainted, where the specification allows. If you are dealing with hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme and colour changes after a rebrand or refit, we can put it right, on natural stone and brick, powder-coated and anodised frames and hotel bathrooms and public areas alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Janetstown first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
For a job around Janetstown, 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. Internal joints can be done whatever the day brings.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Standardise colours across a portfolio
- Note which sealant colour was used where
- Don’t let trades patch coloured joints with a random sealant
- Keep the area clear while the sealant cures
Use gentle cleaning methods on coloured sealant. Strong solvents and abrasive pads can dull or mark the surface.
Make sure every contractor knows which sealant and colour are on the building file. That keeps new work in line with what’s there.
What happens if it’s left?
It’s far cheaper to approve a sample than to strip and redo a full run. A short trial bead costs very little against redoing a whole elevation. For buildings near Janetstown, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
Why us?
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship
- RAL and finish matching where the product range allows
- Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
- Sealing commercial buildings since 2005

Questions we are asked in Janetstown
Does the sea air around Janetstown 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 check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Can the sealant on our Janetstown premises match the finishes?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
How do we ask for a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
What do you charge?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with a description of the work.
Coloured sealant around Janetstown: what changes locally
With the shore within about 3 miles, Janetstown counts as a coastal location. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. We choose a product rated for the exposure, then confirm the colours available for it. Janetstown is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Cold snaps still affect when external joints can be sealed.
Offices and shops close to stations such as Thurso station (2.4 miles north-east of Janetstown) tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours. For any commercial premises in Janetstown, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces.
Janetstown is about 3 miles south-west of Thurso, in Highland. We cover commercial sites throughout Janetstown. We work across 256 places in Highland, from busy centres to rural villages.
Postcode districts covered here: KW14 for colour-matched joints. Close to Janetstown, our area also takes in Glengolly (1 mile east), Westfield (2 miles south-west), Thurso (3 miles north-east), Scrabster (3 miles north) and Forss (3 miles north-west). Island and remote sites need extra planning, with travel, ferry crossings where needed and weather to allow for, so mention the location when you ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

On site: what to expect
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. For a building near Janetstown, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
- A short trial length can be approved before the full run on visible work.
- We remove the existing bead, clean the faces and set the depth.
- The coloured sealant is applied and tooled with clean, masked edges.
Preparing the site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Confirm the product named in the specification
