About our coloured sealant in Spott
We take on colour-matched work across new fit-outs, refurbishments and resealing of existing joints on sites across East Lothian. When replacing old joints, the new colour usually has to match what’s already there. Most enquiries involve a bead that fights the cladding or frame colour and failed coloured sealant that has split or peeled, on cladding panels, natural stone and brick and shop-fit joinery and counters. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Spott from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
In smaller Scottish places like Spott, commercial buildings are often hotels, pubs, shops, schools, surgeries and farm or estate buildings put to new use. Each has kitchens, washrooms and frames that depend on sound joints.
Work we carry out in East Lothian comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

From enquiry to sign-off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Where we can, we combine work around Spott with other jobs nearby. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
- Your RAL reference, sample or photo is checked against that product’s colours.
- You approve the colour, on site if it’s critical.
- The existing bead comes out, then faces are cleaned and backed.
- We mask, seal and tool to a clean line.
- We remove the masking and walk the finished joints with you.
Before we start on site
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Advice
Looking after the joints
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Keep harsh solvents away from visible joints
- Reseal whole runs rather than patching single joints
- Look at the cured colour before the full run
- Standardise colours across a portfolio
Don’t let anyone patch a coloured joint with whatever sealant is to hand. Wrong-colour patches are obvious.
Share the colour reference with anyone working on the finishes. That keeps new work in line with what’s there.
FAQs: Spott
Is Spott too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across every Scottish council area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can being near the sea in Spott affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
Can wet areas have colour-matched sealant?
Yes. Sanitary silicones with anti-mould additives come in a range of colours too. We’ll confirm what’s available for the specified product and agree it with you.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.

When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Stopping sealant from ever changing colour outdoors
- Colour variation across natural stone or brick that no single shade can match
- Cleaning or repairing the surrounding finishes
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Natural stone and brick

Shops, offices and hotels in and around Spott
The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Spott. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. The east of Scotland, where Spott is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still hold up external sealing. Outside work is booked with that in mind
On estates like Spott Road Industrial Estate, 1.7 miles north of Spott, the office and welfare end of each unit has its own sealant to maintain. For premises near Dunbar station (1.9 miles north of Spott), footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.

Commercial clients in Spott

Why deal with it now?
A brand roll-out or multi-site fit-out benefits from a consistent sealant colour. Fixing the colour reference at the start keeps every site the same across the programme. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, so it’s worth renewing joints around Spott before they leak.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

General trades versus a specialist
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
