Coloured sealant for Scourie sites
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
How the quote is worked out
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- The site’s rules and procedures
- How much existing material needs removing
- The product specified
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Sending details for a quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Your programme or deadline
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us.
Coloured sealant in Scourie
Colour-matched joints are often among the last items before handover. We work around other trades and protect adjacent finishes, and snag any marks before we leave. Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee. If you are dealing with coloured joints that have cracked with movement and previous reseals that don’t match the original, we can help, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Scourie, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For a job around Scourie, 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. Indoor work isn’t held up by rain.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it.

Sealant on show in Scourie’s commercial buildings
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Scourie. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. We choose a product rated for the exposure, then confirm the colours available for it. Scourie is on Scotland’s wetter western side. Outside sealing needs dry spells and a programme that can move a little. Weather-facing frames tend to need resealing before the sheltered ones
A lasting commercial joint around Scourie begins with the old bead fully out and the faces clean and dry.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Your questions answered
Must a hotel around Scourie close while you work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. The plan is built around your bookings.
Is a smaller place like Scourie outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Can the building stay open while you work?
In most cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use.
Will sunlight affect the sealant colour?
Some change is normal outdoors. Sunlight, dirt and weathering affect how it looks, and resealing brings the look back.
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.
Do you need to see the site first?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.
When to call us in Scourie
A change of finish can leave existing sealant mismatched. New cladding colours, repainted frames or a refreshed shop fit all prompt colour changes, and the joints need to match.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Marked sealant in hotel bathrooms
- Old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded
- Sealant that no longer suits recoated frames
- Fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification
In hotels such as Scourie Hotel, which lies west of Scourie, refurbishments usually mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes.
What your quote should include
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
Different surfaces, different methods
Shop-fit and joinery finishes
Counters, display units and wall linings are seen close up. Clean masking and neat tooling matter as much as colour.
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 because paint may crack where the joint moves.
