FAQs: Broomhouse
Does your area include sites such as Sighthill Shopping Centre, near Broomhouse?

Can you supply sealant in our brand colour for a site in Broomhouse?

Sealant specialists in Broomhouse
Some sealants used before 2000 can contain asbestos, so older stock needs a check first. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before old sealant is disturbed. If a material is suspected, work stops until it’s tested (removing asbestos-containing materials isn’t something we do). We work on external facade joints, window and door perimeters and washrooms and tea points, and the failures we are asked to look at most are movement joints packed with grit and debris and a top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Broomhouse from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
On a typical commercial building in Broomhouse, the joints that fail first are the hardest-worked ones: south-facing perimeters, entrance thresholds and busy washrooms.
Broomhouse is part of one of Scotland’s big cities, where offices, shops, hotels and restaurants sit close together. Shop units under tenements can bring the property factor into the picture when the work touches shared parts.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

What the job involves on each surface
Commercial kitchens and tea points
A smooth, continuous joint is easier to keep clean. We seal to a neat, cleanable finish and work around service times you agree with us.
Shop fronts and retail fit-outs
Most shops can’t close for a reseal. We plan around the access windows the store gives us, phasing areas so the shop floor stays usable.
How a job runs
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. City jobs in Broomhouse typically need parking and loading planned. Shared closes, stairs and the property factor may need to be part of the plan.
- We begin with whatever information you have, whether that’s photos, a drawing or a list of locations.
- We work out why the joints have failed and fix a quote for the agreed scope.
- Before anything is cut out, we agree access, timings and sequence.
- Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
- Backing and primer go in where needed, then the chosen sealant is applied and tooled.
- Finished joints are checked with you and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Commercial sealant contractors in Broomhouse: the local picture
There are seven care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Broomhouse. Care settings have kitchens, lounges and corridors where joints need to be neat and easy to clean. Broomhouse is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Winter frost and damp frames still stop outside sealing on some days. Outside work is booked with that in mind
In hotels such as Corstorphine Lodge Hotel (1.1 miles north of Broomhouse), refurbishments usually mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes. If you have premises on more than one site, say at Sighthill Shopping Centre and Hailes Park Industrial Estate, one contractor and one quote can cover both.

Do you need commercial sealant contractors in Broomhouse?
Every sealant joint is a maintenance item. How long one lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure to sun and weather, the cleaning regime, the traffic and the product itself. In commercial buildings those factors tend to act together, so periodic inspection matters more than any date on a schedule.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- External beads that have gone brittle and cracked
- Window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open
- Untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby
- Movement joints packed with grit and debris
Units at retail parks like Sighthill Shopping Centre (0.5 miles south-west of Broomhouse) change hands and get refitted, with new joints at every frontage.
Before you book anyone
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
Building owners, agents and FMs in Broomhouse
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Leave it or put it right?
A cheaper quote sometimes means the old bead stays in. New sealant laid on old silicone has nothing to bond to, so it peels. Our prices always include removal of the failed bead and full joint preparation. In a tenement or shared city building, water from a failed joint can reach other owners’ property, which makes early repair simpler for everyone. Fixing it promptly keeps repairs small.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What you get with us
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- Our applicators hold CSCS cards
- A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
- Colour agreed before work starts
How the quote is worked out
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Any access equipment needed
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Before you send an enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- The product your specification calls for
- When you need the work done
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
