About our coloured sealant in Stirling
Colour is often written into the specification, by RAL reference or by matching a sample. Standard sealant ranges cover many colours, so we check what the specified product is made in. We don’t promise an exact custom match, but we will show you the closest options. We work on hotel bathrooms and public areas, natural stone and brick and shop-fit joinery and counters, and what we’re called in for most is dirty, discoloured joints in public areas and old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Stirling, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Scottish towns such as Stirling tend to have a stone-built centre, retail parks on the edge and industrial estates beyond. Older stone and harled frontages need different sealants from the cladding and powder-coated frames on newer units.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Stirling. If an installation problem shows up, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will arrange a return visit.
Your questions answered
Will our hotel in Stirling need to close for the work?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Do you offer colour-matched sealant for buildings in Stirling?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Send colour references or photographs and we’ll confirm what’s available for the product.
Will you quote for a small job?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
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.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
Owners, agents and contractors
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Stirling can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
Looking after the joints
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Use one colour standard across multi-site work
- Agree the sealant colour early and write it into the specification
- Avoid abrasive pads on coloured sealant
- Don’t let trades patch coloured joints with a random sealant
If other trades disturb a coloured joint, ask them to tell you rather than patch it. Wrong-colour patches are obvious, so it is better to reseal the section properly.
Plan resealing of visible joints before they look tired. A planned reseal avoids a run of patch repairs across the building.

What else we do in Stirling
How the job changes by surface
Paintable sealants
Overpainting is most common on internal joints with little movement. If the joint needs a product that can’t be painted, we say so.
Hotel interiors
Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use. We plan around your occupancy with areas kept in use.
From enquiry to sign-off
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. Industrial estates and retail parks around towns like Stirling usually have yard space and site rules. Town-centre premises may need parking planned.
- We confirm the joint type and the product it needs.
- We compare the target colour with the colours available.
- You approve the colour, on site if it’s critical.
- The existing bead comes out, then faces are cleaned and backed.
- Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
- We remove the masking and walk the finished joints with you.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
