Our commercial sealant contractors service in AB32
Sealant joints are easy to overlook until one lets water in, and on a working site that usually surfaces as a leak, a stain or a complaint from occupiers. We are commercial sealant applicators for FMs, managing agents, landlords and contractors. We find out why the sealant joints failed, take them out and seal again using a sealant that suits the joint. We work on movement joints in walls and floors, external facade joints and floor and threshold joints, and what we’re called in for most is movement joints packed with grit and debris and messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down.
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use.
- Send details through our quote form, or ask for a site visit.
- We diagnose the cause of failure and price a fixed scope.
- Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
- Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
- A suitable product for each joint goes in at the right depth and is tooled.
- A final walk-round, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
What you’ll pay
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What you get with us
- 12 months’ guarantee on every job

Commercial premises across AB32
Across AB32, from Westhill, Elrick and Kirkton of Skene to the smaller places between, commercial buildings run from high-street shops and offices to hotels, schools and business parks. We cover the whole area, so occupiers with several sites can use one contractor and one point of contact, with colours matched site to site where the brand needs it.
Work in AB32 comes under Scotland’s own building standards and technical handbooks. Our part is sealing to the specification, whatever the building.
Westhill: Occupiers with premises at both Westhill Industrial Estate and Arnhall Business Park could have the sealant at each handled under one quote. A unit on an estate like Westhill Industrial Estate, 0.5 miles to the south-east of Westhill, typically has an office front, a trade counter and staff facilities with joints of their own.
Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters
Where frames meet the surrounding wall, sealant is the weather line. We remove the old seal, prepare the faces, fit backing where needed and seal again with a product chosen for both the frame and the wall.
Facade and cladding joints
Facade joints move every day as panels warm and cool. The product has to suit the movement, and the depth has to be controlled with backing. We confirm the access in place before we quote.
Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Note dates and locations of sealant work for future planning
- Deal with small splits before they become leaks
- Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
- Add sealant to the planned maintenance inspection list
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. File the handover note with the building records.
Movement joints that fill with debris stop working. With nothing soft to close against, the materials either side take the load and start to break up. That turns a sealant job into something bigger.
Common problems we fix in AB32
If only one face has lost its grip, that’s an adhesion failure. Typical reasons include rushed preparation, no primer where one was needed, dust or release agents on the surface, or three-sided adhesion. We see it often where joints were sealed in a hurry.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes
- Black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off
- Untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby
- Frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall
What affects the price in AB32
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Any access equipment needed
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Location, for remote and island sites
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Your programme or deadline
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
When to bring in a specialist
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.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
AB32: questions and answers
Can areas stay open during the work?
That comes down to planning: areas are phased, access windows agreed and enough washrooms or entrances left in use. Tell us what has to stay open and we will plan the job around it.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
What site paperwork can you provide?
Send your site requirements with the enquiry, and the paperwork is confirmed with the quote. From you, we’ll need the asbestos information for older buildings and any site rules.
How long will the new sealant last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Do you work for facilities managers and managing agents?
Yes, and through main contractors too. We quote, schedule and report back in the way that suits your process, with a 12-month guarantee on the workmanship.
Is your work guaranteed?
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. We’re fully insured for public liability as well.
