Coloured sealant in Newhills, done properly
Coloured sealant is a finishing trade, so it normally comes late in a programme. We work around other trades and protect adjacent finishes, and snag any marks before we leave. Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee. We work on office fit-out finishes, hotel bathrooms and public areas and natural stone and brick, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are a bead that fights the cladding or frame colour and smeared sealant on stone or joinery. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Newhills tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Newhills: 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 sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Our process
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes a few hours or a phased programme, depending on joint lengths and how many colours are involved. For a building near Newhills, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about colour.
- Colour references, samples or photos of the finish are checked against the product’s range.
- A short trial length can be approved before the full run on visible work.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Send your site hours and access windows

Newhills: questions and answers
Can you work at a site such as Aberdeen International Business Park, by Newhills?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Newhills, Aberdeen International Business Park among them, are all within reach. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do hotels near Newhills have to close for sealant work?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Can we specify the colour by RAL number?
Yes. We compare the RAL reference with the colours made for the specified sealant. You will see the nearest options.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Do you take on small jobs?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Will sunlight affect the sealant colour?
Some change is normal outdoors. UV and grime can soften or alter the colour, and resealing brings the look back.
Cost factors for colour-matched joints
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Removal of failed or old sealant
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- When you need the work done
- Access details, including height
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
When something else is needed
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Overpainting a joint that needs a non-paintable product
- A guaranteed perfect match to every finish
- Restoring stained stone or masonry next to old sealant
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Shop-fit and joinery finishes
Retail fit-outs mix many finishes in a small space. Each joint gets a colour that suits the materials it sits between.
Hotel interiors
Hotels use colour-matched sealant in bathrooms, bedrooms and public areas. Wet-area sealants come in colours other than white too.
Signs you need coloured sealant in Newhills
Exposure takes its toll on colour. UV, grime and weathering alter how a bead looks after a few years, so joints that once matched no longer do. A reseal brings the colour back in line.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Poorly tooled joints on visible finishes
- A run of joints in mismatched shades
- White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
- Marked sealant in hotel bathrooms
Parks like Aberdeen International Business Park, 1.1 miles north of Newhills, see tenants come and go, and every move-in brings joints to seal.
