Coloured sealant in Montrose, done properly
On a finished interior or a high-quality elevation, the sealant is part of the look. We install coloured and colour-matched sealant so joints sit quietly against cladding, stone, brick, frames and shop-fit finishes. The right product for the joint always comes first, then the colour. Most enquiries involve dirty, discoloured joints in public areas and white or grey sealant that clashes with the finish, on shop-fit joinery and counters, powder-coated and anodised frames and hotel bathrooms and public areas. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Montrose, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In a Scottish town the size of Montrose, commercial buildings usually run from older stone premises in the centre to retail and industrial units on the outskirts. Stone, harl and render on older buildings, and cladding and coated frames on newer ones, each need their own product.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Jobs in Montrose are planned with two things in mind: the forecast for external joints and the building’s hours for internal ones. Send photographs or drawings and we will quote and plan to suit.
- First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
- We compare the target colour with the colours available.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

General trades versus a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
What sets the cost
Before we quote, we look at:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether the work must be split into stages
Pricing colour-matched joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Common problems we fix in Montrose
Failed sealant still has to be dealt with, whatever its colour: splits, adhesion loss and hardening all happen. We cut out and reseal in the agreed colour.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- A run of joints in mismatched shades
- Sealant that no longer suits recoated frames
- Weathered sealant that no longer matches
- Shop fits that need consistent sealant colours across sites
Sites a few miles apart, such as Broomfield Industrial Estate and Forties Road Industrial Estate, can share one programme and one point of contact.
What to look for in a quote
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
Aftercare for building managers
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Avoid abrasive pads on coloured sealant
- Reseal whole runs rather than patching single joints
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Keep the same sealant colour across a brand
Let the joints cure as the manufacturer advises before they’re cleaned. Fresh coloured beads show fingerprints and dust more easily.
Make sure every contractor knows which sealant and colour are on the building file. That keeps new work in line with what’s there.
Questions we’re asked in Montrose
Will our hotel in Montrose need to close for the work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Does a coastal location like Montrose affect which sealant is used?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Does the weather affect the work?
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.
Do you use coloured sanitary silicone?
Yes. Wet-area sealants are made in colours as well as white. We will confirm what’s available for the specified product.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Leave it or put it right?
People notice sealant lines more than you might expect, particularly on high-end finishes. Putting it right costs little compared with the finishes around it, and it lifts the whole area. Water through a failed joint in a building in Montrose can spoil ceilings, floors and stock. Putting it right early limits the damage.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Why us?
- Public liability insurance in place
- A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
- Colour agreed before work starts
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland

Working on commercial sites near Montrose
Montrose lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Sea-facing elevations are normally where failed joints show first. Montrose is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Cold snaps still affect when external joints can be sealed. In winter, outside joints are timed for when surfaces are dry and within the product’s range
If you run a unit on an estate such as Broomfield Industrial Estate, 0.9 miles north of Montrose, the trade counter, offices and staff facilities have joints to look after as well as the warehouse. Offices and shops close to stations such as Montrose station (less than half a mile south-west of Montrose) tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours.
