How we handle coloured sealant in Kames
Architects, designers and brand teams often specify the sealant colour as carefully as the finishes around it. Standard sealant ranges cover many colours, so we check what the specified product is made in. We don’t promise an exact custom match, but we will show you the closest options. If you have a run of joints in mismatched shades and fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Kames tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Around smaller places such as Kames, the commercial buildings tend to be hospitality, local shops, schools, health centres and converted rural buildings. Their kitchens, washrooms and window perimeters all need joints that keep water out.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Common problems we fix in Kames
A coloured joint can fail like any other: 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:
- Stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms
- Patch repairs in several different colours
- Colour changes after a rebrand or refit
- Untidy coloured beads with ragged edges
For a hotel such as Tighnabruaich Hotel, which lies north-east of Kames, the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.
Before you book anyone
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Brief cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Reseal whole runs rather than patching single joints
- Agree the sealant colour early and write it into the specification
Clean coloured joints with mild, non-abrasive products. Strong solvents and abrasive pads can dull or mark the surface.
Settle the colour early in the project. Late decisions lead to substitutes and mismatches; fixing it early prevents rework.

Different surfaces, different methods
Hotel interiors
Hotels use colour-matched sealant in bathrooms, bedrooms and public areas. Sanitary silicone comes in colours too, so bathrooms can match the tiling or stone.
Paintable sealants
Paintable sealants suit internal, low-movement joints best. We will tell you if a joint needs a non-paintable product.
Sealant on show in Kames’s commercial buildings
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Kames. 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. Being in the west of Scotland, Kames gets more rain than eastern areas. External joints are sealed on dry days, with some flexibility in the dates. Shopfronts and frames facing the prevailing weather are where failures show first
Whatever the building in Kames, commercial sealant work starts with cutting out the failed bead and cleaning the joint back to sound material.

Quoting for work in Kames
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Access and working height
- Which sealant the job calls for
A quote for colour-matched joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What we need to price the job
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- When you need the work done
- The site address and postcode
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Overpainting a joint that needs a non-paintable product
- Preventing all fading from sunlight and weathering
- Cleaning or repairing the surrounding finishes
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer.

Advice
Kames: questions and answers
Is Kames too far out for you?
Not at all. Kames is within our area. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Does the sea air around Kames change the choice of sealant?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Does coloured sealant change colour outdoors?
Some change is normal outdoors. Sunlight, dirt and weathering affect how it looks, and resealing brings the look back.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
