How we handle coloured sealant in Kippen
A coloured bead has to perform like any other sealant. Faces are prepared, depth is fixed with rod and the bead is tooled onto two sides only, exactly as for a standard colour. Careful masking keeps the edges crisp. We work on powder-coated and anodised frames, office fit-out finishes and cladding panels, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are a run of joints in mismatched shades and smeared sealant on stone or joinery. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Kippen, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Travel to smaller places such as Kippen is planned so the whole job is finished in one visit where possible: 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 is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

Cost factors for colour-matched joints
What shapes the price:
- The product specified
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- How accessible the joints are
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.
Sending details for a quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
What Kippen’s businesses ask us to seal
Being in the west of Scotland, Kippen gets more rain than eastern areas. Outside sealing needs dry spells and a programme that can move a little. Elevations facing the weather usually show failed joints first
For premises around Kippen where the joint is seen, colour options for the product are confirmed with the quote. A lasting commercial joint around Kippen begins with the old bead fully out and the faces clean and dry.

Powder-coated and anodised frames
Anodised and metallic frames rarely have an identical sealant colour. We’ll suggest the nearest standard colours.
Office fit-outs
Office joinery and frames normally follow a colour scheme. We choose sealant colours to suit and agree them before work starts.
Doing it in-house
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Your questions answered
Do you offer colour-matched sealant for buildings in Kippen?
Yes, we can normally get close to most finishes from the product’s colour range. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
Is Kippen too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it.
Can you fit around our working hours?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll plan around them. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
What happens if it’s left?
Matching new joints to the existing ones is easier when the whole run is done together. Small repairs at different times rarely match, so a planned reseal often looks better value. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, so it’s worth renewing joints around Kippen before they leak.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.

Our process
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For work around Kippen, we aim for one trip, so photos, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about colour.
- Colour references, samples or photographs of the finish are checked against the product’s range.
- Where colour is critical, a sample bead can be agreed in a discreet spot.
- We take out the existing bead, clean the joints and fit backing.
- We apply the agreed colour and tool it neatly, with masking where the finish needs it.
Before we start on site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
