Advice
How we handle coloured sealant in Rankinston
Where colour is critical, a sample bead in a discreet spot settles the question. Cured sealant may look a shade different from the wet bead, and lighting changes it again, so approving a sample on site is worth doing. Tell us who needs to approve the colour and we’ll plan for it. We work on cladding panels, shop-fit joinery and counters and natural stone and brick, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are untidy coloured beads with ragged edges and joints that need to match a new RAL frame colour. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Rankinston first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
For a job around Rankinston, the Scottish weather is part of the planning: outside joints need dry, frost-clear surfaces, so we agree a window with some give in it. Internal joints can be done whatever the day brings.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Surface by surface
Cladding panels
Cladding joints are often seen across a whole elevation. The colour is picked from the range of a sealant that suits the panel joint.
Shop-fit and joinery finishes
In shops, joints are at eye level and inspected by clients. Clean masking and neat tooling matter as much as colour.
Common questions from Rankinston clients
Can you supply sealant in our brand colour for a site in Rankinston?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
Is Rankinston too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Rankinston are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
How do we ask for a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
How soon can the area be used again?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.

When to call us in Rankinston
A change of finish can leave existing sealant mismatched. Refurbishments and rebrands often bring a new colour scheme that the sealant has to follow.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Poorly tooled joints on visible finishes
- White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
- Dirty, discoloured joints in public areas
- Weathered sealant that no longer matches
Where a joint is on show in Rankinston, we will check which shades the product offers before work starts.
Questions to ask before you book
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
