How we handle coloured sealant in Templand

A colour-matched bead still has to work as a seal. Faces are prepared, depth is fixed with rod and the bead is tooled onto two sides only, exactly as for a standard colour. Clean masking and steady tooling give the sharp lines colour work needs. If you have marked sealant in hotel bathrooms and hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme, we can help, on natural stone and brick, cladding panels and office fit-out finishes alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Templand, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Templand: sealant needs a dry joint and the right temperature, so external work has a weather window built in. Internal joints can be done whatever the day brings.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Coloured sealant around Templand: how the place shapes the job

Being in the east of Scotland, Templand gets less rain than the west coast. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still hold up external sealing. In winter, outside joints are timed for when surfaces are dry and within the product’s range

Whatever the building in Templand, commercial sealant work starts with cutting out the failed bead and cleaning the joint back to sound material. Premises within reach of Lockerbie station (to the south-east of Templand) often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing.

Templand is about 9 miles north-east of Dumfries, in Dumfries and Galloway. Commercial clients in Templand can call on us for colour-matched joints. Templand is one of 139 places in Dumfries and Galloway on our list for colour-matched joints. Sites around Edinburgh have their own page, roughly 55 miles from Templand.

How the quote is worked out

Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:

  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Working within restricted access windows
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits

Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

What to include in your enquiry

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • Specification clauses that apply
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area

A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

Looking after the joints

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:

  • Settle the colour with the designer at the start
  • Keep harsh solvents away from visible joints
  • Standardise colours across a portfolio
  • Check a trial length in real light

Check visible joints during routine inspections. Watch for cracks, peeling or discolouration.

Standardise the sealant colour on multi-site work. It keeps repairs and new sites consistent.

What happens if it’s left?

Resealing a full run gives a consistent colour. Piecemeal repairs over several years tend to drift in colour, and the patchwork effect grows. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Templand. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.

Pricing colour-matched joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.

Templand: questions and answers

What site paperwork comes with a job in Templand?

RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. We hold £5m public liability insurance, are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators are CSCS-carded.

Is Templand too far out for you?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Which sealant will you use?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

Can you work to a RAL reference?

Yes. RAL references are a common way to specify sealant colour. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.

Can you match any colour exactly?

No. We can’t promise an exact custom match. We will show you the closest colours in the specified product’s range so you can choose.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.

Honest limits

Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:

  • Restoring stained stone or masonry next to old sealant
  • A guaranteed perfect match to every finish
  • A colour that never alters with age

If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Office fit-out finishes
  • Natural stone and brick
  • Cladding panels
  • Shop-fit joinery and counters
  • Hotel bathrooms and public areas
  • Powder-coated and anodised frames

Work for main contractors and building owners

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

How a job runs

Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For work around Templand, we aim for one trip, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.

  1. We start with photos, drawings or a visit to see the finishes.
  2. Colour options from the specified product’s range are shared with you.
  3. The programme and access are agreed, including any phasing.
  4. We prepare each joint, prime where needed and fit backing.
  5. The agreed colour is installed and tooled neatly.

What we need from you
