For managing agents and facilities managers
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Coloured sealant in Strachan, done properly
A coloured bead has to perform like any other sealant. Faces are prepared, depth is fixed with rod and the bead is tooled onto two sides only, exactly as for a standard colour. Careful masking keeps the edges crisp. We work on cladding panels, office fit-out finishes and natural stone and brick, and the failures we are asked to look at most are old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded and fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification. For commercial sealant work in Strachan, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Strachan: 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.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Sealant on show in Strachan’s commercial buildings
Strachan is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Winter frost and damp frames still stop outside sealing on some days. We plan external frontages and frames around that
Where a joint is on show in Strachan, we’ll check which shades the product offers before work starts. Whatever the building in Strachan, commercial sealant work starts with cutting out the failed bead and cleaning the joint back to sound material.

General trades versus a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
How the job changes by surface
Shop-fit and joinery finishes
Retail fit-outs mix many finishes in a small space. We choose sealant colours that suit each junction from the product’s range.
Powder-coated and anodised frames
Anodised and metallic frames rarely have an identical sealant colour. We show you the closest options in the product’s range for approval.

On site: what to expect
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. For work around Strachan, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
- We compare the target colour with the colours available.
- The nearest colour is agreed, with a sample bead where needed.
- We cut out the existing bead, clean and set the depth.
- Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
- Masking comes off and the work is checked with you.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
