Common problems we fix in Strontian
Most enquiries start with a joint that looks wrong: a pale bead on a dark frame, or an old seal that has discoloured. A better-matched colour fixes the appearance without changing the joint’s job.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing something like this:
- White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
- Joints that need to match a new RAL frame colour
- Weathered sealant that no longer matches
- Stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms
Refits at hotels like Strontian Hotel, under half a mile south of Strontian, bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day.

Coloured sealant in Strontian, done properly
Architects, designers and brand teams often specify the sealant colour as carefully as the finishes around it. Most sealant types are made in a broad range of standard colours, and we will confirm the colours available for the specified product. We don’t promise an exact custom match, but we will show you the closest options. We work on powder-coated and anodised frames, natural stone and brick and cladding panels, and what we are called in for most is smeared sealant on stone or joinery and hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Strontian first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Travel to smaller places such as Strontian is planned so the whole job is finished in one visit where possible: send photographs and a complete list so the right products and colours come on the day. If neighbouring businesses have work too, the visits can be grouped.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Strontian. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- 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.
- Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
- Masking comes off and the work is checked with you.
Preparing the site
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice
Coloured sealant in Strontian: the local picture
Strontian sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. For shops, hotels and offices, that means frontage and frame joints that weather faster than they would inland. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. There are a number of hotels within about 2 miles of Strontian. A hotel refurbishment is full of joints that guests will see, and a matched colour keeps them discreet; work is planned so the hotel keeps trading.
For any commercial premises in Strontian, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces.
Strontian (Gaelic: Sron an t-Sithein) is in Highland. Any commercial site in Strontian is covered, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. Across Highland, 256 places are covered, Strontian among them. For work in that direction, see our Glasgow page, about 76 miles away.
Postcode districts covered here: PH36. For a building on Dal nan Each and Dal na Mart or nearby, we can quote for colour-matched joints. We also cover Acharacle (9 miles west), Ceann Loch Muideart (9 miles north-west), Port Appin (12 miles south-east), Appin (12 miles south-east) and Balliveolan (12 miles south). Where a site is remote or on an island, we plan travel and materials carefully, so the full address helps from the start.

FAQs: Strontian
Can being near the sea in Strontian affect the sealant we need?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Is Strontian off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Looking after the joints
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Settle the colour with the designer at the start
- Note which sealant colour was used where
- Reseal whole runs rather than patching single joints
- Keep harsh solvents away from visible joints
Use gentle cleaning methods on coloured sealant. Harsh chemicals and scouring can change how the colour looks over time.
Plan resealing of visible joints before they look tired. Replacing them on a schedule keeps finishes looking right across the building.
What the job involves on each surface
Office fit-outs
Office fit-outs include glazed partitions, kitchens, washrooms and reception areas. A consistent colour across floors looks deliberate at handover.
Powder-coated and anodised frames
Window, door and shopfront frames in RAL colours often need a sealant to suit. The frame colour is checked against what the product is made in, and you confirm the choice.
When it isn’t the sealant
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Preventing all fading from sunlight and weathering
- Overpainting a joint that needs a non-paintable product
- Custom-mixed sealant colours
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think.
