Coloured sealant in Lochee
Colour is often written into the specification, by RAL reference or by matching a sample. Standard sealant ranges cover many colours, and we will confirm the colours available for the specified product at quote stage. An exact bespoke match can’t always be promised, so we talk you through the nearest colours. If you’re dealing with stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms and white or grey sealant that clashes with the finish, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Lochee? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
Much of the older commercial stock in Scotland’s cities is sandstone or, in Aberdeen, granite. Stone needs a neutral-cure sealant suited to it and a colour that sits quietly against the masonry.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Lochee as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- The product specified
- Access and working height
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Details that help us quote
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area

Maintenance after handover
After handover, these steps help:
- Standardise colours across a portfolio
- Look at the cured colour before the full run
- Keep harsh solvents away from visible joints
- Note which sealant colour was used where
If other trades disturb a coloured joint, ask them to tell you rather than patch it. A mismatched repair stands out, undoing the look you paid for.
Ask for a trial bead on high-profile areas. A sample in real light shows how it will look.
Our process
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For premises in Lochee, tell us about access times, shared entrances and any building rules, so the work can be phased and areas kept in use.
- First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
- Your RAL reference, sample or photo is checked against that product’s colours.
- The nearest colour is agreed, with a sample bead where needed.
- We cut out the existing bead, clean and set the depth.
- We mask, seal and tool to a clean line.
- We remove the masking and walk the finished joints with you.
What we need from you
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Lochee: questions and answers
Can you work at a site such as Ardyle Industrial Estate, by Lochee?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Lochee, Ardyle Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can being near the sea in Lochee affect the sealant we need?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Do you use coloured sanitary silicone?
Yes. Wet-area sealants are made in colours as well as white. We check the colour range of the sanitary product specified before work starts.
Will the colour fade over time?
Some change is normal outdoors. Sunlight, dirt and weathering affect how it looks.
Is Lochee in your area?
Yes. We cover Lochee and the rest of Dundee, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
What Lochee’s businesses ask us to seal
Lochee sits close to the coast, within about 2 miles. For shops, hotels and offices, that means frontage and frame joints that weather faster than they would inland. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. 10 care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from Lochee. Kitchens and communal rooms in care settings are cleaned constantly, so their joints need to be smooth and sound.
In a retail centre such as Kingsway West Retail Park, which lies north-east of Lochee, new tenants mean new shop fits, and the sealant at counters, frontages and floor edges is part of the finish. Offices and shops close to stations such as Dundee station, 1.9 miles south-east of Lochee, tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours. Occupiers with premises at both Ardyle Industrial Estate and Dunsinane Industrial Estate could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.
Lochee is about 1 mile west of Dundee, in Dundee. If you are looking for coloured sealant in Lochee, we can help. Lochee is one of 28 places we cover in Dundee.

Local landmarks in Lochee
We work on buildings around Scottish School of Contemporary Dance, Cox Branch Library and Balgay Hill, among other places. Lochee’s nearest station is Dundee station, roughly 1.9 miles south-east. Well-known places in the area include Dudhope Castle (1.2 miles south-east) and Tayside Medical History Museum (1.1 miles south-east). Not far away are Balgay Hill and Trottick Mill Ponds.
Should maintenance staff do it?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Why act early in Lochee
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 at handover. Getting access arranged for a building in Lochee takes time, so it makes sense to renew every failing joint while it’s in place.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.
