Coloured sealant for commercial buildings in Stromness
Colour is often written into the specification, by RAL reference or by matching a sample. Most sealant types are made in a broad range of standard colours, so we check what the specified product is made in before we quote. An exact bespoke match can’t always be promised, so we talk you through the nearest colours. If you’re dealing with standard-colour sealant spoiling a high-end finish and shop fits that need consistent sealant colours across sites, we can help, whatever the surface. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Stromness? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
Around smaller places such as Stromness, the commercial buildings tend to be hospitality, local shops, schools, health centres and converted rural buildings. Their kitchens, washrooms and window perimeters all need joints that keep water out.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Stromness as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- The product specified
- The total length or number of joints
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- When you need the work done
- Any specification or named product
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings to discuss it first.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stromness
Standard white or grey sealant is cheaper to stock, but it doesn’t always suit the finish. Where joints are on show, choosing a better colour is usually worth it. Around smaller places like Stromness, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.

Questions we’re asked in Stromness
Does a coastal location like Stromness affect which sealant is used?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Is Stromness inside the area you cover, given it’s on an island?
Yes. We cover the whole of Scotland, and that includes island locations such as Stromness. We plan island jobs around the ferry and the forecast, and bring everything the job needs on the first crossing.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Can we approve the colour on site?
Yes. A trial length can be applied and approved before the full run. Cured sealant can look slightly different from the wet bead, so seeing it in place helps.
Does coloured sealant change colour outdoors?
Exposed sealant can change in appearance over the years. UV and grime can soften or alter the colour, and resealing brings the look back.
How do I request a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
What we can’t put right
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- A colour that never alters with age
- Finishes that change colour from one area to another
- Paint over sealant on joints that move too much
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What the job involves on each surface
Cladding panels
Cladding joints are often seen across a whole elevation. We pick a facade-grade sealant in a shade that sits with the panels, rated for the joint’s movement.
Hotel interiors
Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Commercial premises in Stromness
Stromness 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. A matched colour is only half the brief on an exposed frontage. Stromness is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Winter frost and damp frames still stop outside sealing on some days.
Whatever the building in Stromness, commercial sealant work starts with cutting out the failed bead and cleaning the joint back to sound material. In hotels such as Royal Hotel (less than half a mile east of Stromness), refurbishments normally mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes.
Stromness is about 12 miles west of Kirkwall, in the Orkney Islands. We cover Stromness, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. Our the Orkney Islands coverage takes in 51 places, from busy centres to rural villages.
Postcode districts covered here: KW16 for colour-matched joints. Streets here include Franklin Road, Manse Lane and Springfield Crescent. Main routes into Stromness include the A965, which helps when planning parking and deliveries for the job. If your building is just outside Stromness, we cover Cairston (1 mile north-east), Clouston (3 miles north-east), Stenness (4 miles north-east), Hoy (4 miles south) and Wasbister (4 miles north-east). Stromness is one of the busier places in the Orkney Islands, and we take on colour-matched joints for its commercial and public buildings. Where a site is remote or on an island, travel and materials need planning ahead, so include the location in your enquiry.
