What the job involves on each surface
Brick and masonry
On brick, the sealant often matches the mortar rather than the brick face. The nearest colour in the range is agreed with you for the elevation.
Paintable sealants
Where no colour in the range is close, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant can sometimes be painted to match. That only works where the joint and specification allow it.
How we handle coloured sealant in North Berwick
We can agree a short trial length before the full run. Cured sealant may look a shade different from the wet bead, and lighting changes it again, so seeing it in place helps. Let us know who signs off colour, and we will fit the sample into the programme. We work on office fit-out finishes, natural stone and brick and powder-coated and anodised frames, and the failures we are asked to look at most are patch repairs in several different colours and shop fits that need consistent sealant colours across sites. Most enquiries from North Berwick start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For work in and around North Berwick, we’d rather do everything on one trip, so it helps to have photographs and a full list first. Several jobs nearby can also be put together.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in East Lothian. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will come back to it.

Working on commercial sites near North Berwick
North Berwick lies within about 1 mile of the sea. 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. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of North Berwick. Refits in hotels bring joints at vanity tops, bar counters and reception desks where the colour has to suit the scheme.
Industrial estates such as Heugh Road Industrial Estate, 1 mile east of North Berwick, have offices, trade counters and welfare areas whose sealant ages like any other building’s. Sites a few miles apart, such as Heugh Road Industrial Estate and Mill Walk Business Park, can share one programme and one point of contact. For a hotel such as Folly Hotel, less than half a mile to the north of North Berwick, the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.
North Berwick is about 18 miles east of Kirkcaldy, in East Lothian. Any commercial site in North Berwick is covered, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. 48 places across East Lothian fall within our area, North Berwick among them.

Anyone looking for coloured sealant in EH39 gets the same process as the rest of our area: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee.

Common questions from North Berwick clients
Will you take on work at estates like Heugh Road Industrial Estate, close to North Berwick?
Yes, sites like Heugh Road Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of North Berwick. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Does the sea air around North Berwick change the choice of sealant?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
How much does the work cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Will the sealant be an exact match to our finish?
No. We can’t promise an exact custom match. We’ll show you the closest colours in the specified product’s range.
Is coloured sealant weaker than white?
Performance comes from the sealant type and the installation. The joint gets the product it needs, in a colour from that product’s range.
Quoting for work in North Berwick
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and state of each joint
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Phasing around occupants
A quote for colour-matched joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What we need to price the job
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- When you need the work done
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- The type of building and who uses it
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Colour variation across natural stone or brick that no single shade can match
- Paintable products in joints they aren’t suited to
- Repairing damaged frames or cladding
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work in North Berwick

When to bring in a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Also in North Berwick
Why deal with it now?
It’s far cheaper to approve a sample than to strip and redo a full run. A short trial bead costs very little against redoing a whole elevation. Around smaller places like North Berwick, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote.
