Questions we’re asked in Rickarton
Which documents can you supply for work in Rickarton?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Is Rickarton off your patch?
No. Places such as Rickarton are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Do you match sealant to RAL colours?
Yes. Many specifications give the sealant colour as a RAL number. We check what that product is made in.
What will the job cost?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Coloured sealant in Rickarton, done properly
A coloured bead has to perform like any other sealant. Each joint is cleaned, backed to depth and tooled firmly onto both faces. Careful masking keeps the edges crisp. If you have stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms and untidy coloured beads with ragged edges, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Rickarton 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.
Around smaller places such as Rickarton, the commercial buildings tend to be hospitality, local shops, schools, health centres and converted rural buildings. Each has kitchens, washrooms and frames that depend on sound joints.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Where we can, we combine work around Rickarton with other jobs nearby. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
- Where colour is critical, a sample bead can be agreed in a discreet spot.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- Arrange parking or a loading space

How the job changes by surface
Paintable sealants
Overpainting is most common on internal joints with little movement. We will tell you if a joint needs a non-paintable product.
Brick and masonry
Movement joints in brickwork are long and visible. The right colour keeps them discreet.
How the quote is worked out
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Distance, for remote addresses
- The size and state of each joint
- The total length or number of joints
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
We can often quote from photos and a few details. Please tell us:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The site address and postcode
- Specification clauses that apply
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with what you know.
Aftercare for building managers
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Check a trial length in real light
- Settle the colour with the designer at the start
- Avoid abrasive pads on coloured sealant
- Don’t let trades patch coloured joints with a random sealant
Colours can soften with light and weathering. That is normal for exposed sealant, and resealing restores the look when the time comes.
Approve a sample where colour really matters. A sample in real light shows how it will look.

What else we do in Rickarton
Doing it in-house
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
