About our coloured sealant in Wester Hailes
Matching to anodised or powder-coated frames is a common request. The frame colour is checked against the sealant’s standard range. Where nothing in the range is close enough, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may be an alternative, if the joint and specification allow. We work on cladding panels, office fit-out finishes and powder-coated and anodised frames, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are discoloured joints on a visible elevation and a run of joints in mismatched shades. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Wester Hailes? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
Natural stone gives a lot of Scottish city premises their character: sandstone in most, granite in Aberdeen. Stone needs a neutral-cure sealant suited to it and a colour that sits quietly against the masonry.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Owners, agents and contractors
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Commercial premises in Wester Hailes
Wester Hailes has a number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Refits in hotels bring joints at vanity tops, bar counters and reception desks where the colour has to suit the scheme, with rooms done in turn while the rest stay let. Wester Hailes has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Sites like these see regular refits, with shopfronts, offices and staff areas to seal.
For premises near Wester Hailes station, under half a mile south of Wester Hailes, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading. For a retailer at a site such as Westside Plaza Shopping Centre, less than half a mile south-west of Wester Hailes, the joints customers see are as much part of the fit-out as the shelving. If you have premises on more than one site, say at Westside Plaza Shopping Centre and Sighthill Shopping Centre, one contractor and one quote can cover both.
Wester Hailes is about 3 miles south-west of Edinburgh, in Edinburgh. We cover Wester Hailes and the rest of Edinburgh, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Our Edinburgh coverage takes in 174 places, from busy centres to rural villages.
We cover the EH14, EH11 and EH13 postcode districts for colour-matched joints. Among the streets we cover are Calder Road, Ashcroft Lane and Alcorn Square. Sites close to Wester Hailes are covered too, including Baberton (1 mile south), Sighthill (1 mile north-west), Clovenstone (1 mile south-east), The Calders (1 mile west) and Kingsknowe (1 mile east). Further afield, our area takes in Edinburgh (3 miles north-east), Leith (6 miles north-east), Bonnington (5 miles north-east), Greenside (5 miles north-east), Broughton (5 miles north-east) and Bellevue (5 miles north-east).
What’s near Wester Hailes
Locally, jobs take us to sites close to Merchiston Castle School, Juniper Green Parish Church and Saughton Park, among other places. Wester Hailes has its own railway station: Wester Hailes station. A little further out are The Gyle Shopping Centre (1.9 miles north-west) and War Poets Collection (0.5 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Torphin Hill and The New Leaf Co-op.
General trades versus a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

What else we do in Wester Hailes
How the job changes by surface
Paintable sealants
Where no colour in the range is close, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant can sometimes be painted to match. That only works where the joint and specification allow it.
Natural stone
Stone facades and stone interiors vary widely. We choose from the product’s range and agree the colour with you after a sample if needed.
Why deal with it now?
Matching new joints to the existing ones is easier when the whole run is done together. Piecemeal repairs over several years tend to drift in colour, so a planned reseal often looks better value. Failed sealant in a shared building in Wester Hailes can affect more than one owner, which makes early repair simpler for everyone. Acting early avoids disputes and bigger repairs.
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

- Custom-mixed sealant colours
- Paintable products in joints they aren’t suited to
- Preventing all fading from sunlight and weathering

- Cladding panels
- Powder-coated and anodised frames
- Shop-fit joinery and counters
- Hotel bathrooms and public areas
From enquiry to sign-off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work normally takes a day for a modest shop fit, and longer for a full building or several floors, and we clear our waste as we work. In a Scottish city, kerbside space and loading need planning, especially near the centre. Tenement closes, shared stairs and factor approvals may also be involved.
- Photos or drawings show us the finishes and joints.
- We send the closest colours from the product’s range.
- The programme and access are agreed, including any phasing.
- Joints are prepared, primed where specified and backed.
- We seal in the approved colour and tool it smooth.
Getting the site ready
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

FAQs: Wester Hailes
Must a hotel around Wester Hailes close while you work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Can you supply sealant in our brand colour for a site in Wester Hailes?
Yes, sealants come in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references, cladding, stone or frames is a common request. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Will you quote for a small job?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Do you need to see the site first?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit.
Do you cover Wester Hailes?
Yes. We cover Wester Hailes, and you can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings to get started.
