Why deal with it now?
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 Sullom, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photos and we’ll quote for everything together.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.

Commercial sealant contractors in Sullom
Commercial occupiers rarely want a floor out of action for sealant work. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them; phasing keeps some washrooms, kitchens or entrances available while others are done. That applies whether the building is an office, a shop, a hotel, a college or a care home. We work on floor and threshold joints, movement joints in walls and floors and window and door perimeters, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open and smeared sealant across finishes from a rushed job. Searching for sealant specialists in Sullom? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
In an occupied building in Sullom, the job is planned so areas stay in use: washrooms in turn, floors in sections and entrances kept open.
In smaller Scottish places like Sullom, commercial buildings are often hotels, pubs, shops, schools, surgeries and farm or estate buildings put to new use. Their kitchens, washrooms and window perimeters all need joints that keep water out.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Advice
Work for main contractors and building owners
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
What Sullom’s businesses ask us to seal
Sullom lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Buildings near the sea put their external joints through more driven rain, with salt air nearer the beach. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. The east of Scotland, where Sullom is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and condensation on winter mornings can still hold up external sealing. We plan external frontages and frames around that
Where a joint is on show in Sullom, we’ll check which shades the product offers before work starts. For any commercial premises in Sullom, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces.
Sullom is in the Shetland Islands. If you’re looking for commercial sealant contractors in Sullom, we can help. We work across 63 places in the Shetland Islands, large and small.

Questions we’re asked in Sullom
Does a coastal location like Sullom affect which sealant is used?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Is Sullom inside the area you cover, given it’s on an island?
Yes, Sullom is within the area we cover. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Ferry times and the weather set the plan, so we ask for photographs and a full list first.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards.
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.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. Public liability insurance is in place too.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Surface by surface
Washrooms and toilets
Mould that has grown into washroom sealant can’t usually be cleaned out. Replacement is the fix: strip, clean, dry and reseal.
Shop fronts and retail fit-outs
Shop fits put sealant right in front of customers. Joints around counters, displays and shopfront frames have to look tidy as well as seal, frequently colour-matched to the fit-out. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
When something else is needed
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Water from a services leak rather than a joint
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- Suspect materials that need testing and specialist removal
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
