Our process
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Stor is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- Photos or drawings show us the finishes and joints.
- We send the closest colours from the product’s range.
- Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
- Joints are prepared, primed where specified and backed.
- The agreed colour is installed and tooled neatly.
Preparing the site
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Move anything stored against the joints
Quotes
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

About our coloured sealant in Stor
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 coloured joints that have cracked with movement and patch repairs in several different colours, we can put it right, whatever the surface. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Stor first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Stor: 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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stor
Leaving a failed coloured joint risks more than appearance. Behind the bead, moisture can damage substrates and finishes, so resealing protects the finishes as well as the look. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Stor. Send photographs and we will quote for everything together.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Standardise colours across a portfolio
- Plan full-run reseals on visible elevations
- Put the colour reference on the finishes schedule
- Look at the cured colour before the full run
Don’t let anyone patch a coloured joint with whatever sealant is to hand. Wrong-colour patches are obvious.
Settle the colour early in the project. When colour is left to the last minute, it is often wrong; fixing it early prevents rework.

When something else is needed
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Finishes that change colour from one area to another
- Stopping sealant from ever changing colour outdoors
- Paint over sealant on joints that move too much
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Doing it in-house
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Questions we’re asked in Stor
Does the sea air around Stor change the choice of sealant?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Is Stor off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you match sealant to RAL colours?
Yes. RAL references are a common way to specify sealant colour. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product and agree the nearest option.
Do you work on hotel and retail fit-outs?
Yes. Send the specification or colour reference. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
Will sunlight affect the sealant colour?
Some change over time is normal. Exposure, product and colour all play a part, and we can’t promise a colour that never alters.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it.
Sealant on show in Stor’s commercial buildings
Stor is within about 1 mile of the coast. For shops, hotels and offices, that means frontage and frame joints that weather faster than they would inland. Sea-facing elevations are normally where failed joints show first. Being in the west of Scotland, Stor gets more rain than eastern areas. Frontage work is booked with a few days’ give for the weather.
