Common questions from Burrelton clients
Is a hospital such as Blairgowrie Community Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Burrelton too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
What exactly is a movement joint?
The general name is movement joint, and expansion joint is one common type. On site, people tend to use them interchangeably, and the sealing method is much the same.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Is movement joint sealing guaranteed?
Each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee on the workmanship. Damage from later works or traffic loads outside the joint’s design isn’t a workmanship fault.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
About our expansion joint sealing in Burrelton
Joint design counts for as much as the sealant itself. The joint has to be wide enough for the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, and depth is controlled using closed-cell backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints. For wider joints, many sealant makers recommend a width-to-depth ratio, often around 2:1, and the bead is tooled so it grips the two faces alone. We work on car park decks and ramps, podiums and floor movement joints and brickwork movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are joints where the bead has lost adhesion and water dripping through deck or ramp joints. Searching for sealant specialists in Burrelton? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
In smaller places such as Burrelton, the joints we are asked about sit in workshops, farm sheds, schools and halls. Slabs and yards take vehicles, rain and frost.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Burrelton as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Burrelton
On site: what to expect
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Burrelton is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- A fixed quote names the sealant we propose and its movement class.
- Where areas have to stay open, we agree a phased sequence before starting.
- We strip the old sealant or filler and prepare each face until it’s sound and dry.
- Backing rod or bond-breaker sets the depth, primer goes on where specified, and the sealant is applied and tooled.
- We check each joint with you, confirm the cure time and sign off under our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
Advice
General trades versus a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
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.
What we can’t put right
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Changing the joint layout or spacing of a structure
- Concrete or masonry repairs along the arrises
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Blockwork control joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Brickwork movement joints
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Cladding panel joints
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing is usually the answer, not replacing the element. If the material either side is sound, a properly prepared reseal restores the joint. We’ll flag where edges need repair before sealing. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Burrelton
Burrelton is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Frost and winter road salt still work into open joints in car parks and yards. Resealing before the cold months helps protect the edges.
Large sites such as Blairgowrie Community Hospital, 4.9 miles north of Burrelton, have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels. In and around Burrelton, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes.

Work for main contractors and building owners
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Reopen bays and walkways only after the stated cure time
- Keep racking legs and heavy point loads off floor joints
- Look over external and deck joints after a hard winter
- Clear dirt from joint lines during routine cleaning
Add every elevation, deck and floor joint to your inspection round. Early splits and edges starting to lift show up on a routine check and long before edges start to break. Should you spot a problem, you can ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and send a picture.
Joints sealed at the same time generally fail around the same time. Inspecting the whole run is worth the effort. We can suggest an order, worst joints first.
