What we can’t put right
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Paint over sealant on joints that move too much
- Finishes that change colour from one area to another
- Stopping sealant from ever changing colour outdoors
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How we handle coloured sealant in Whitecraig
We take on colour-matched work across new fit-outs, refurbishments and resealing of existing joints. When replacing old joints, the new colour usually has to match what’s already there, especially on a listed or high-profile elevation. We work on office fit-out finishes, natural stone and brick and shop-fit joinery and counters, and what we’re called in for most is old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded and a bead that fights the cladding or frame colour.

In smaller Scottish places like Whitecraig, commercial buildings are often hotels, pubs, shops, schools, surgeries and farm or estate buildings put to new use. Each has kitchens, washrooms and frames that depend on sound joints.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

FAQs: Whitecraig
Can being near the sea in Whitecraig affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Does a hotel in Whitecraig need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
In most cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Do you use coloured sanitary silicone?
Yes, where the product range allows. Hotel bathrooms, washrooms and kitchens often use coloured sanitary silicone to suit tiles or stone in commercial interiors.
What will the job cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Do you work in Whitecraig?
Yes. We take on work across Whitecraig.
Aftercare for building managers
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Ask contractors to check the colour before resealing
- Keep the colour details for future repairs
- Brief cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Clean coloured joints with mild products
Give the sealant its full cure time before cleaning or handling the area. Fresh coloured beads show fingerprints and dust more easily, so keep the area clear.
Standardise the sealant colour on multi-site work. It keeps repairs and new sites consistent.
For managing agents and facilities managers
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

What else we do in Whitecraig
Our process
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself usually takes a few hours or a phased programme, depending on joint lengths and how many colours are involved, and we clear our waste as we work. Jobs near Whitecraig are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
- We compare the target colour with the colours available.
- The nearest colour is agreed, with a sample bead where needed.
- We cut out the existing bead, clean and set the depth.
- We mask, seal and tool to a clean line.
- We remove the masking and walk the finished joints with you.
Getting the site ready
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Let building users know which areas are affected
Get a fixed quote
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Advice
Surface by surface
Powder-coated and anodised frames
Metallic and anodised finishes are hard to match exactly with sealant. We show you the closest options in the product’s range.
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.
Sealant on show in Whitecraig’s commercial buildings
Whitecraig lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Buildings near the sea put their external joints through more driven rain, with salt air nearer the beach. We choose a product rated for the exposure, then confirm the colours available for it. Whitecraig has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Units on sites like these change tenants and get refitted, and each refit leaves joints to seal.
Refits at hotels like Sweethope Hotel (under half a mile north of Whitecraig) bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day. If you run a unit on an estate such as Inveresk Mills Industrial Park, 1.4 miles north-west of Whitecraig, the trade counter, offices and staff facilities have joints to look after as well as the warehouse.
Whitecraig is about 2 miles south-east of Musselburgh, in East Lothian. Whitecraig sits inside our coverage and the rest of East Lothian, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. We work across 48 places in East Lothian, from busy centres to rural villages. For work in that direction, see our Edinburgh page, about 7 miles away.

When to call us in Whitecraig
Internal joints can stain from cleaning products, spills or mould. Mould that has grown into sealant typically can’t be cleaned out, so the joint is replaced.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Poorly tooled joints on visible finishes
- Fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification
- Patch repairs in several different colours
- White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
Occupiers with premises at both Inveresk Mills Industrial Park and Inveresk Industrial Estate could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.
