Should maintenance staff do it?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Commercial sealant contractors in Stor, done properly
Inside a commercial building, sealant does a lot of quiet work: washroom fittings, kitchen worktops, window boards, partition heads and the line where floors meet walls. Externally it keeps rain out of frame perimeters, panel joints and movement joints. Our applicators work on both the inside and the outside of the building, matching the sealant to the location instead of using one product throughout. The enquiries we see most involve layers of sealant, all of them failing and sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy, across floor and threshold joints, external facade joints and washrooms and tea points. Most enquiries from Stor start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
In an occupied building in Stor, the job is planned so areas stay in use: we agree the order with you and hand back each area with its cure time.
Scottish weather decides a lot about outside work in a place like Stor: sealant needs a dry joint and the right temperature, so external work has a weather window built in. Internal joints can be done whatever the day brings.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

Frontages, fit-outs and joints in Stor
Stor is within about 1 mile of the coast. For shops, hotels and offices, that means frontage and frame joints that weather faster than they would inland. Sea-facing elevations are typically where failed joints show first. Being in the west of Scotland, Stor gets more rain than eastern areas. External joints are sealed on dry days, with some flexibility in the dates. Shopfronts and frames facing the prevailing weather are where failures show first
For any commercial premises in Stor, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces. For premises around Stor where the joint is seen, colour options for the product are confirmed with the quote.
Stor (Gaelic: Stoer) is in Highland. Any commercial site in Stor is covered, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Across Highland, 256 places are covered, including Stor.
Postcode districts covered here: IV27 for sealant joints.

Where a site is remote or on an island, travel and materials need planning ahead.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stor
Fixing joints complaint by complaint is a costly way to manage sealant. A planned programme groups work by building or area, cuts repeat visits and gives you a budget figure. We will suggest an order, worst sealant joints first. Around smaller places like Stor, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

Advice
Questions we’re asked in Stor
Is a smaller place like Stor outside your area?
No. Places such as Stor are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Does a coastal location like Stor affect which sealant is used?
It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Is it OK to apply fresh sealant over existing beads?
Removal comes first, every time. Then the joint is cleaned, primed where the maker specifies, backed to depth and resealed.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?
Yes. A large share of our work comes through facilities managers, managing agents and landlords as well as contractors. Tell us how you issue work and we’ll fit in.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Can you handle sealant work across several sites?
Yes. We take on runs of jobs across portfolios as well as single sites, priced site by site or as one programme.
Surface by surface
Fire-rated seals where specified
Intumescent and other fire-rated sealants go in at service penetrations and linear gaps to the maker’s tested details, where they are specified. The design and sign-off of fire stopping belong to the designer and building control, and we install to the specification.
Shop fronts and retail fit-outs
Retail work normally has to fit around trading. Tell us your trading hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
