Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Reseal whole runs rather than patching single joints
- Don’t let trades patch coloured joints with a random sealant
- Clean coloured joints with mild products
Give the sealant its full cure time before cleaning or handling the area. Fresh coloured beads show fingerprints and dust more easily.
Settle the colour early in the project. Late decisions lead to substitutes and mismatches.
About our coloured sealant in Kirriemuir
In retail, hospitality and office fit-outs, joints are seen close up every day. A grey bead on a black shopfront or a white line against oak looks like a defect. The aim is a colour from the product’s range that disappears into the surface. We work on cladding panels, hotel bathrooms and public areas and shop-fit joinery and counters, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are weathered sealant that no longer matches and colour changes after a rebrand or refit. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Kirriemuir? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
In smaller Scottish places like Kirriemuir, commercial buildings are often hotels, pubs, shops, schools, surgeries and farm or estate buildings put to new use. Their kitchens, washrooms and window perimeters all need joints that keep water out.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shop-fit and joinery finishes
Shop fits bring laminate, timber, metal and stone together, each with its own colour. We choose sealant colours that suit each junction.
Hotel interiors
Phased resealing lets rooms go back into use quickly. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them with areas kept in use.
What we’re called out for in Kirriemuir
On some projects the colour was never agreed. The joint may work perfectly but look out of place, so someone asks for it to be changed.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Sealant that no longer suits recoated frames
- Dirty, discoloured joints in public areas
- A run of joints in mismatched shades
- Coloured joints that have cracked with movement
If you have premises on more than one site, say at Muirhead Industrial Estate and Logie Business Park, one contractor and one quote can cover both.

FAQs: Kirriemuir
Can you work at a site such as Muirhead Industrial Estate, by Kirriemuir?
Yes. We cover Kirriemuir and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Muirhead Industrial Estate. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Must a hotel around Kirriemuir close while you work?
In most cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Can we specify the colour by RAL number?
Yes. Many specifications give the sealant colour as a RAL number. We check what that product is made in.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
How do you choose the sealant?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. 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, for external work. 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.
Why it’s worth doing now in Kirriemuir
Standard white or grey sealant is cheaper to stock, but it doesn’t always suit the finish. Where joints are on show, choosing a better colour is usually worth it in how the finished space looks. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Kirriemuir, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
There’s no price list, 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?
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
- Fixed quotes based on photographs, drawings or a visit
- Colour agreed before work starts
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
Sealant on show in Kirriemuir’s commercial buildings
Kirriemuir has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel refurbishments are where a matched sealant colour earns its place: bathroom, bar and reception joints have to sit with the finishes; work is planned so the hotel keeps trading. Kirriemuir is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still hold up external sealing.
If you run a unit on an estate such as Muirhead Industrial Estate, which lies south of Kirriemuir, the trade counter, offices and staff facilities have joints to look after as well as the warehouse. Refits at hotels like Airlie Arms Hotel, less than half a mile to the south of Kirriemuir, bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day.

Doing it in-house
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
