If you have window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open and smeared sealant across finishes from a rushed job, we can put it right. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Strichen, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Occupied buildings in Strichen need the work phased: washrooms in turn, floors in sections and entrances kept open.
For a job around Strichen, the Scottish weather is part of the planning: outside joints need dry, frost-clear surfaces, so we agree a window with some give in it. Indoor work isn’t held up by rain.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Strichen is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Cold snaps still affect when external joints can be sealed. In winter, outside joints are timed for when surfaces are dry and within the product’s range
A lasting commercial joint around Strichen begins with the old bead fully out and the faces clean and dry.

Do you need commercial sealant contractors in Strichen?
External sealant takes a steady beating from the weather. UV hardens the surface while wind and rain work at the edges. Once it stiffens, the joint opens up at the next big temperature swing.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away
- Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
- Layers of sealant, all of them failing
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
Where a joint is on show in Strichen, we will check which shades the product offers before work starts.
Before you book anyone
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
Our process
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself normally takes anything from part of a day on a short run of joints to several weeks on a large phased package, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For work around Strichen, we aim for one trip, so photos, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- 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.
- Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
- Completed areas are signed off with you under our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with what you know.

Leave it or put it right?
Leaving a failed joint rarely saves money. Water past a frame perimeter or a washroom joint can reach plasterboard, insulation, floor coverings and the ceiling below, which brings decorators and flooring contractors into the repair. Dealing with it while the damage stops at the bead is the cheaper route. For buildings near Strichen, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
Why us?
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- 12 months’ guarantee on every job

What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- Removing asbestos-containing materials (a licensed or specialist contractor’s job)
- A dripping trap, valve or pipe behind a fitting
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Floor and threshold joints
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- Window and door perimeters
- External facade joints
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Washrooms and tea points
Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
After the work
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Keep a record of which joints were resealed and when
- Check the asbestos register before anyone disturbs old sealant in an older building
- Don’t let cleaning or traffic back on before the cure time is up
- Act on the first lifting edges rather than waiting
Keep an eye out for other trades after we’ve gone. When fittings are moved or cabling added, the sealant nearby is easily disturbed. Where work has disturbed a joint, just ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form for a quote.
Sealant rarely fails all at once across a building. A few splits this year usually 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.
Common questions from Strichen clients
Can the sealant on our Strichen premises match the finishes?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
Is Strichen too far out for you?
No. Places such as Strichen are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Which site documents can you send us?
The paperwork is agreed with the quote: most clients ask for RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details. Every applicator holds a CSCS card.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
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.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
