Looking after the joints
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
- Log reseals in the O&M or maintenance records
- Put external and wet-area joints on a regular inspection round
- Report cracked or peeling sealant early
In washrooms and kitchens, extraction makes a real difference to sealant life. Fans that are broken or switched off leave joints damp for longer. It’s worth having fans checked while the sealant is fresh.
Sealant rarely fails all at once across a building. A few splits this year normally mean more next year, so it makes sense to look at the wider elevation or block. We can assess the lot and suggest what to do now and later.
Commercial sealant contractors in Inver
Some sealants used before 2000 can contain asbestos, so older stock needs a check first. Before anything is cut out, we ask for the asbestos register or survey, because the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder. If a material is suspected, work stops until it’s tested (removing asbestos-containing materials isn’t something we do). If you have movement joints packed with grit and debris and messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Inver, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Multi-site clients with buildings in and around Inver can put several sites on one programme, with one quote format and one point of contact.
Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Inver: 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.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. Jobs near Inver are often grouped with others in the same area. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- Send details through our quote form, or ask for a site visit.
- We diagnose the cause of failure and price a fixed scope.
- Where parts of the building must stay open, the work is phased.
- Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
- Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
- A final walk-round, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Preparing the site
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Let building users know which areas are affected

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
Advice
What Inver’s businesses ask us to seal
Inver sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. Exposed frontages near the sea are hard on sealant, so the product has to suit the weather as well as the look. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. The east of Scotland, where Inver is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still hold up external sealing. We plan external frontages and frames around that
For premises near Fearn station (4 miles south-west of Inver), footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.
Inver is about 16 miles north of Nairn, in Highland. We cover commercial sites throughout Inver, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. We work across 256 places in Highland, from busy centres to rural villages.
Anyone looking for commercial sealant contractors in IV20 gets the same process as the rest of our area: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Streets here include Main Street, Front Street and New Street, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. Just outside Inver, we also work in Hill of Fearn (4 miles south-west), Portmahomack (4 miles east), Fearn (4 miles south-west), Hilton of Cadboll (4 miles south) and Loans of Tullich (4 miles south). A short drive away, we cover Tain (5 miles west), Alness (15 miles south-west), Dornoch (6 miles north-west), Invergordon (13 miles south-west), Golspie (11 miles north) and Brora (13 miles north). Island and remote sites need extra planning, with travel, ferry crossings where needed and weather to allow for, so give the site location in your enquiry.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Inver
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Inver. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
What sealant work can’t fix
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Water from a services leak rather than a joint
- A failed roof covering or waterproofing membrane
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- Window and door perimeters
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Floor and threshold joints
- Washrooms and tea points
- External facade joints
Why deal with it now?
On many buildings the mastic was done by whichever trade was on site. Choosing the product, setting the depth and preparing the faces are what a specialist brings, and they’re where most failures begin. It shows over the following seasons rather than at handover. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Inver. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
Why appoint us
- Clear, fixed quotes
- CHAS accredited contractor
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship

Questions we’re asked in Inver
Is a smaller place like Inver outside your area?
No. Places such as Inver are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Does a coastal location like Inver affect which sealant is used?
It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Do you work directly for building managers?
Yes. You can send details through our quote form.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?
The paperwork is agreed with the quote: most clients ask for RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details. Our applicators are CSCS-carded.
Can one contractor look after sealant on all our buildings?
Yes. We take on runs of jobs across portfolios as well as single sites, priced site by site or as one programme.
Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?
It can, on some older buildings. So we check the register first and stop work on anything suspect until it’s tested.
Common problems we fix in Inver
In wet areas the enemy is typically mould rather than movement. Constant moisture, cleaning chemicals and weak extraction let mould grow into the sealant. Replacement with a sanitary anti-mould silicone is the lasting answer.
Look out for the following:
- Messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down
- Frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
- External beads that have gone brittle and cracked
Whatever the building in Inver, commercial sealant work starts with cutting out the failed bead and cleaning the joint back to sound material.
