Coloured sealant for commercial buildings in Red Craig
We can agree a short trial length before the full run. Sealant can look slightly different once it has cured, and again in different light, so approving a sample on site is worth doing. Tell us who needs to approve the colour and we’ll plan for it. If you have failed coloured sealant that has split or peeled and dirty, discoloured joints in public areas, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Most enquiries from Red Craig start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
For a job around Red Craig, 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.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Our process
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Red Craig. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- We confirm the joint type and the product it 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.
- The existing bead comes out, then faces are cleaned and backed.
- Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
- Masking comes off and the work is checked with you.
Getting the site ready
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
Getting a fixed quote
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Advice
After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Keep the area clear while the sealant cures
- Use one colour standard across multi-site work
- Look at the cured colour before the full run
Check visible joints during routine inspections. Watch for cracks, peeling or discolouration and deal with problems early.
Ask for a trial bead on high-profile areas. Seeing the cured colour in place avoids surprises.
What sealant work can’t fix
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Repairing damaged frames or cladding
- Stopping sealant from ever changing colour outdoors
- A guaranteed perfect match to every finish
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Powder-coated and anodised frames
- Natural stone and brick
- Hotel bathrooms and public areas
- Office fit-out finishes
- Cladding panels
- Shop-fit joinery and counters
Sealant on show in Red Craig’s commercial buildings
With the shore within about 3 miles, Red Craig counts as a coastal location. Exposed frontages near the sea are hard on sealant, so the product has to suit the weather as well as the look. A matched colour is only half the brief on an exposed frontage. Red Craig has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. A hotel refurbishment is full of joints that guests will see, and a matched colour keeps them discreet, and the work can be phased so the rest of the hotel keeps trading.
Occupiers with premises at both Greshop Industrial Estate and Waterford Industrial Estate could have the sealant at each handled under one quote. For a hotel such as Knockomie Hotel, 0.7 miles east of Red Craig, the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.
Red Craig is about 1 mile south-west of Forres, in Moray. Any commercial site in Red Craig is covered, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. 59 places across Moray fall within our area, Red Craig among them. Sites around Aberdeen have their own page, about 65 miles away.

Red Craig: questions and answers
Will you take on work at estates like Greshop Industrial Estate, close to Red Craig?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Red Craig, Greshop Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Will our hotel in Red Craig need to close for the work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Can you fit around our working hours?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
Do you match sealant to RAL colours?
Yes. We compare the RAL reference with the colours made for the specified sealant. We’ll tell you which colour is closest at quote stage.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
In most cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use, with each area protected and signed.
Will the colour fade over time?
Exposed sealant can change in appearance over the years. Sunlight, dirt and weathering affect how it looks.
Surface by surface
Office fit-outs
In offices, sealant appears at partitions, tea points, washrooms and reception desks. Colour-matched joints keep the finish consistent across floors for the tenant.
Paintable sealants
Where no colour in the range is close, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant can sometimes be painted to match. It depends on movement and the specification, as paint can crack on a moving joint.

Why act early in Red Craig
It’s far cheaper to approve a sample than to strip and redo a full run. A sample takes little time compared with replacing joints in the wrong colour. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Red Craig, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

What we are called out for in Red Craig
Colour-matched sealant is usually requested because a standard bead has spoiled the finish: a pale bead on a dark frame, or an old seal that has discoloured. Replacing it with a suitable colour restores the intended look.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Shop fits that need consistent sealant colours across sites
- Previous reseals that don’t match the original
- Old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded
- Dirty, discoloured joints in public areas
Offices and shops close to stations such as Forres station, 1.4 miles north-east of Red Craig, tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours.
