Common questions from Broadsea clients
Is Broadsea off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you work at a site such as Kessock Road Industrial Estate, by Broadsea?
Yes, sites like Kessock Road Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Broadsea. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Will you come and look before quoting?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, and bigger or more complex jobs usually get a visit.
Is movement joint sealing guaranteed?
The 12-month guarantee applies to the workmanship. If a joint we sealed fails inside the 12 months, let us know.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in Broadsea
Few joints take as much punishment as those in a car park. Tyres load the edges, and de-icing salts and water work into any gap; water dripping through to the deck below is often the first sign. We reseal deck and ramp joints with a trafficable sealant chosen for the movement, phasing bays so the car park can stay in use. If you have water getting into the wall through a failed joint and debris jammed in movement joints, we can help. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Broadsea, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around smaller Scottish places like Broadsea, slabs needing attention are often in agricultural buildings, workshops, schools and hotels. Concrete slabs and yards there take vehicles and weather.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application.

What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
- Concrete or masonry repairs along the arrises
- Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Cladding panel joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Blockwork control joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Precast concrete panel joints
Joints that move: notes for Broadsea
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Broadsea. Open joints in coastal car parks and yards let in salt-laden water as well as grit, so it pays to keep them sealed. Broadsea is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Freezing weather and salt still attack open external joints. Sealing them in drier months limits winter damage.
Large sites such as Fraserburgh Hospital, 0.5 miles south of Broadsea, have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels. For a school such as Fraserburgh Academy, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. If you manage units on an estate such as Kessock Road Industrial Estate, 1.1 miles south-east of Broadsea, the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch.
Broadsea is about 1 mile north of Fraserburgh, in Aberdeenshire. Our applicators travel to Broadsea for work on movement joints. Our Aberdeenshire coverage takes in 179 places. For work in that direction, see our Aberdeen page, about 38 miles away.

What else we do in Broadsea
For managing agents and facilities managers
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Broadsea can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Aberdeenshire.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Jobs near Broadsea are often grouped with others in the same area. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- We start with photos, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- 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.
Before we start on site
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Point out any areas we must not close

How the quote is worked out
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Phasing around occupants
- The size and state of each joint
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- The product your specification calls for
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
What happens if it’s left?
On a car park, resealing joints in phases keeps the deck open. Work can be planned so parts of the deck stay open, compared with a full closure. Tell us what has to stay open and we’ll plan around it. Around smaller places like Broadsea, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

What the job involves on each surface
Internal floor movement joints
Forklift and pallet-truck wheels break unsupported joint edges. The right filler or sealant for the traffic and movement protects them, and tell you if edges need repairing first.
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Brick and block edges need careful preparation. We clean them back to sound material and prime where the manufacturer specifies, then seal and tool the joint.
