What we are called out for in Scourie
A split down the middle of the bead tells a different story. Normally the movement was too much for the sealant chosen. Replacing it like for like rarely holds, so width, depth and product are checked before we quote.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
- Frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall
- External beads that have gone brittle and cracked
For any commercial premises in Scourie, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
Commercial sealant contractors for commercial buildings in Scourie
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. Primer is used wherever the manufacturer calls for it on that surface. Site teams most often ask us about shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks and mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops, across floor and threshold joints, window and door perimeters and external facade joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Scourie, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
A lot of what we do in Scourie is replacing sealant that has done its years: split, chalky or peeling, with leaks or mould starting behind it.
Travel to smaller places such as Scourie is planned so the whole job is finished in one visit where possible: send photographs and a complete list so the right products and colours come on the day. If neighbouring businesses have work too, the visits can be grouped.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

What Scourie’s businesses ask us to seal
Scourie lies within about 1 mile of the sea. For shops, hotels and offices, that means frontage and frame joints that weather faster than they would inland. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. The west of Scotland, where Scourie is, gets more rain than the east. Outside sealing needs dry spells and a programme that can move a little. Shopfronts and frames facing the prevailing weather are where failures show first
In hotels such as Scourie Hotel, under half a mile to the west of Scourie, refurbishments typically mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes.
Scourie is in Highland. We cover Scourie and the rest of Highland, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Our Highland coverage takes in 256 places, from busy centres to rural villages.
Work on sealant joints is covered throughout IV27, for business premises of every kind. If your site is on Moffat Square and Harbour Road or close by, send details and we will quote for sealant joints. If your building is just outside Scourie, we cover Scourie More (1 mile south-west), An Druim Beag (8 miles south), Kinlochbervie (8 miles north-east), Stor (12 miles south-west) and Stoer (12 miles south-west). Where a site is remote or on an island, we plan travel and materials carefully, so include the location in your enquiry.

Leave it or put it right?
Reactive resealing, a leak at a time, tends to cost more overall than a plan. A planned programme groups work by building or area, cuts repeat visits and gives you a budget figure. We’ll suggest an order, worst sealant joints first. For buildings near Scourie, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Should maintenance staff do it?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
What the job involves on each surface
Movement joints in walls and floors
Brickwork, blockwork and floor slabs all have movement joints that need a flexible seal. When the seal fails, debris gets in and the joint stops working. The new sealant is chosen for the movement and, on floors, the traffic.
Fire-rated seals where specified
Not every penetration suits a sealant. Other products, such as collars, wraps and batts, are specified for different services, and we’ll tell you if the detail calls for something else.
Questions about Scourie
Can being near the sea in Scourie affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Will our hotel in Scourie need to close for the work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
How many days will you need on site?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?
It’s possible in older buildings, especially those built before 2000. Before cutting anything out, we ask for the asbestos register or survey, and if something is suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
What do you need from us to quote?
The main factors are metres of joint, removal, access, the product and how many phases there are. To get a fixed price, send details through our quote form, or phone or email us.
Is it OK to apply fresh sealant over existing beads?
Full removal is part of every quote. Sealing over traps water and lifts once the joint moves.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Our process
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts. For a building near Scourie, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We start with the evidence: photos, drawings or a look on site.
- A fixed quote follows, with removal and preparation included.
- Sequence, access and working times are settled before the first joint is touched.
- The failed sealant comes out and the faces are prepared, with primer where required.
- Depth is set with backing, then the sealant is applied, tooled and the area tidied.
- We hand back each area with its cure time and our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Point out any areas we must not close

How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The total length or number of joints
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- The type of building and who uses it
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we will fill any gaps with a visit.
