Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
When something else is needed
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Water from a services leak rather than a joint
- A failed roof covering or waterproofing membrane
- Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Washrooms and tea points
- Floor and threshold joints
- Window and door perimeters
- External facade joints
- Movement joints in walls and floors
About our commercial sealant contractors in Juniper Green
A reseal stands or falls on the preparation underneath it. Silicone has no grip on cured silicone, so the failed bead is cut out completely, then both faces are cleaned back to sound, dry material with no dust or grease on them. Primer is used wherever the manufacturer calls for it on that surface and the joint depth is controlled with backing rod. If you are dealing with black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off and gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks, 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 Juniper Green, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
On a typical commercial building in Juniper Green, the joints that fail first are the hardest-worked ones: south-facing perimeters, entrance thresholds and busy washrooms.
For work in and around Juniper Green, we’d rather do everything on one trip: send photographs and a complete list so the right products and colours come on the day. Several jobs nearby can also be put together.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What we are called out for in Juniper Green
Plenty of failed joints were never sealed with the right product. Decorators’ caulk on a joint that moves, acetoxy silicone on stone or metal, or a stiff sealant on a facade will all fail early. Guidance such as BS 6213 exists to steer sealant selection for exactly this reason, and many specifications refer to it.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Damp patches where an external joint has failed
- Greasy, split joints in a kitchen or tea point
- Expansion joints with the sealant torn out
- Layers of sealant, all of them failing
Shops and cafés around stations like Wester Hailes station (to the north of Juniper Green) trade from early, so work is timed around them.
Questions to ask before you book
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
Commercial sealant contractors around Juniper Green: points for this area
Juniper Green has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. 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. The 2 miles around Juniper Green include three care or nursing homes. In care settings, a neat joint at a kitchen worktop or a lounge window is part of keeping the place easy to clean; colours can be chosen to suit the interior.
If you look after units at a retail site such as Westside Plaza Shopping Centre, 0.8 miles north of Juniper Green, shopfront perimeters and shop-fit joints are where a matched colour shows. A business with units at Westside Plaza Shopping Centre and Pentland Gait Office Park needn’t use two contractors for its sealant.
Juniper Green is about 4 miles south-west of Merchiston, in Edinburgh. Across the EH14 postcode area, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Juniper Green is one of 174 places in Edinburgh on our list for sealant joints.

Questions we are asked in Juniper Green
Is Juniper Green too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will our hotel in Juniper Green need to close for the work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
How do we get a quote?
Send photographs, drawings or a list of locations through the quote form on this site. If a visit is needed we will book one, and a fixed quote follows.
Do you work directly for building managers?
Yes. A large share of our work comes through facilities managers, managing agents and landlords, alongside main contractors. Tell us how you issue work and we will fit in.
Which site documents can you send us?
We confirm documents at quote stage: most clients ask for RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details. Every applicator holds a CSCS card.
Is your work guaranteed?
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. Public liability insurance is in place too.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
What sets the cost
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The total length or number of joints
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Details that help us quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The product your specification calls for
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
When to bring in a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Why it’s worth doing now in Juniper Green
A failed seal around a window, worktop or panel doesn’t mean the element itself has to go. In many cases the element is fine and only the seal around it has given up. Resealing usually costs far less than renewal, though we’ll tell you honestly if the element itself is the problem. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Juniper Green, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

On site: what to expect

Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself usually taking a few hours to several days on most single sites, depending on joint lengths and access. For work around Juniper Green, we aim for one trip, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
