About our coloured sealant in Laxdale

Natural materials vary across a single elevation: sandstone, granite, brick and stained timber rarely have one flat colour. The aim is a sealant colour that sits comfortably against the whole surface. If you’re dealing with smeared sealant on stone or joinery and joints that need to match a new RAL frame colour, we can put it right, on shop-fit joinery and counters, natural stone and brick and office fit-out finishes alike. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Laxdale, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Laxdale: sealant needs a dry joint and the right temperature, so external work has a weather window built in. Internal joints can be done whatever the day brings.

We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Why deal with it now?

A brand roll-out or multi-site fit-out benefits from a consistent sealant colour. Setting one product and colour for every site avoids variation across the programme. Around smaller places like Laxdale, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.

No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

What you get with us

  • A range of standard colours, depending on the product
  • Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
  • CHAS accredited
  • Colour agreed before work starts

Coloured sealant in Laxdale: the local picture

Laxdale sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. Exposed frontages near the sea are hard on sealant, so the product has to suit the weather as well as the look. We choose a product rated for the exposure, then confirm the colours available for it. A 2-mile radius around Laxdale takes in a number of hotels. Refits in hotels bring joints at vanity tops, bar counters and reception desks where the colour has to suit the scheme, with rooms done in turn while the rest stay let.

Refits at hotels like Royal Hotel, 1.2 miles to the south of Laxdale, bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day. If you run an office at a site such as Gleann Seileach Business Park, which lies south-west of Laxdale, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out. If you have premises on more than one site, say at Gleann Seileach Business Park and Marybank Industrial Estate, one contractor and one quote can cover both.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Laxdale. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first.

General trades versus a specialist

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

Our process

In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Laxdale is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.

  1. First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
  2. We compare the target colour with the colours available.
  3. You approve the colour, on site if it’s critical.
  4. The existing bead comes out, then faces are cleaned and backed.
  5. Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
  6. Masking comes off and the work is checked with you.

Before we start on site

  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Agree which areas must stay open

Advice

What sealant work can’t fix

Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • A colour that never alters with age
  • Finishes that change colour from one area to another
  • Restoring stained stone or masonry next to old sealant

Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
