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:
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
- Removing asbestos-containing materials (a licensed or specialist contractor’s job)
- Structural cracks or movement the joints weren’t designed for
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kelvindale
Sealant is often treated as an afterthought by the trade that fitted the element. Choosing the product, setting the depth and preparing the faces are what a specialist brings, the three things that decide how long a joint lasts. It shows over the following seasons rather than at handover. Getting access arranged for a building in Kelvindale takes time, so it makes sense to renew every failing joint while it’s in place.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

- 12-month guarantee on workmanship

Kelvindale: questions and answers
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Kelvindale?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
Does a hotel in Kelvindale need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
How soon can the area be used again?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Is your work guaranteed?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. Should a joint we sealed give trouble during those 12 months, let us know and we’ll look at it.
Do you work for facilities managers and managing agents?
Yes. You can send details through our quote form, and tell us what site paperwork you need.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

Doing it in-house
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
What the job involves on each surface
Facade and cladding joints
Panel joints on cladding and rendered facades open and close with the temperature. They need a sealant with the right movement capability, laid at the right depth. Access, such as scaffold already up, is agreed before the price is fixed.
Shop fronts and retail fit-outs
In retail, sealant is on show. Joints around counters, displays and shopfront frames have to look tidy as well as seal, often in a colour to suit the brand finish. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Shops, offices and hotels in and around Kelvindale

Hotel refurbishments are where a matched sealant colour earns its place: bathroom, bar and reception joints have to sit with the finishes.

Advice
What we’re called out for in Kelvindale
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.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby
- Gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks
- Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
- Leaks that seem to come through a sealant line
A business with units at Dalsholm Industrial Estate and West of Scotland Science Park (Kelvin Campus) needn’t use two contractors for its sealant.
