Do you need coloured sealant in Westmuir?
Sometimes the wrong colour went in at the start, or a different product was swapped in. The joint may work perfectly but look out of place, and a client or designer asks for it to be redone.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Sealant that no longer suits recoated frames
- White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
- A run of joints in mismatched shades
- Fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification
If you run a unit on an estate such as Muirhead Industrial Estate (1.2 miles east of Westmuir), the trade counter, offices and staff facilities have joints to look after as well as the warehouse.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
Coloured sealant for commercial buildings in Westmuir
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 office fit-out finishes, shop-fit joinery and counters and hotel bathrooms and public areas, and the failures we are asked to look at most are smeared sealant on stone or joinery and stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms. Whoever orders the work in Westmuir, the brief is typically the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Westmuir: 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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What else we do in Westmuir
Why it’s worth doing now in Westmuir
It’s far cheaper to approve a sample than to strip and redo a full run. A sample takes little time. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Why appoint us
- One number for every site we cover
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
- Commercial sealant work since 2005
Should maintenance staff do it?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
What Westmuir’s businesses ask us to seal
The area within 2 miles of Westmuir holds a number of hotels. In hotels, sealant shows everywhere, from bathroom joints to reception counters, so colour and a clean finish matter; work is planned so the hotel keeps trading. Westmuir 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
A business with units at Muirhead Industrial Estate and Logie Business Park needn’t use two contractors for its sealant. A hotel such as Airlie Arms Hotel, 1.4 miles north-east of Westmuir, shows how much sealant a hospitality building has on show, from bathroom joints to the bar.
Westmuir is about 6 miles west of Forfar, in Angus. If you are looking for coloured sealant in Westmuir, we can help. Our Angus coverage takes in 65 places, large and small. Dundee is covered too, around 13 miles from Westmuir.

Your questions answered
Will our hotel in Westmuir need to close for the work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Does your area include sites such as Muirhead Industrial Estate, near Westmuir?
Yes. We cover Westmuir and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Muirhead Industrial Estate. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Will sunlight affect the sealant colour?
Exposed sealant can change in appearance over the years. Sunlight, dirt and weathering affect how it looks, which is why exposed joints are inspected and resealed when needed.
Can we see a sample before the full job?
Yes. Tell us who approves colour and we’ll plan the sample into the programme.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Do you use coloured sanitary silicone?
Yes. Sanitary silicones with anti-mould additives come in a range of colours too. We check the colour range of the sanitary product specified.
Aftercare for building managers
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Approve a sample bead on high-profile areas
- Use one colour standard across multi-site work
- Put the colour reference on the finishes schedule
- Keep the area clear while the sealant cures
Clean coloured joints with mild, non-abrasive products. Strong solvents and abrasive pads can dull or mark the surface.
Use one product and colour reference across a building or brand. Consistency makes future work simpler.
From enquiry to sign-off
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Where we can, we combine work around Westmuir with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
- A short trial length can be approved before the full run on visible work.
- We take out the existing bead, clean the joints and fit backing.
- We apply the agreed colour and tool it neatly, with masking where the finish needs it.
Preparing the site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
