Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
After the work
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Record the sealant used and the date in the O&M file
- Keep stones and debris out of open joint lines
- Brief car park operatives to protect joint lines during winter clearance
- Keep traffic off new joints until the cure time is up
Every joint we seal is backed by a 12-month guarantee on workmanship. Record which product went into which joints in the building file so future maintenance isn’t guesswork.
Floor joints with failed fillers break up quickly under wheels. Broken arrises jolt trucks, loads and drivers. Keeping the filler or sealant sound protects the floor.

We’ll tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing, and phased work keeps areas in use.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Quoting for work in Balgowan
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
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 will explain how it’s made up.
Details that help us quote
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings

- Clear photographs of the problem areas
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email if you’d rather talk the job through.

What else we do in Balgowan
Your questions answered
Which documents can you supply for work in Balgowan?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Is Balgowan off your patch?
Not at all. Balgowan is within our area. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Is any job too small?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Can a joint be sealed if the edges are broken?
Broken arrises have to be put right before resealing and we will flag every length affected. Sealing over them leads to early failure.
When it isn’t the sealant
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Crumbling edges that would give a new bead nothing sound to grip
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Car park decks and ramps

Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Where we can, we combine work around Balgowan with other jobs nearby. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- We start with photographs, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Any broken arrises or friable edges are flagged before work goes further.
- A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Agree which areas must stay open
