Expansion joint sealing in Collennan
Floor movement joints in warehouses, retail and public buildings carry wheeled traffic. Unsupported edges break up under wheels. We’ll tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing. We work on cladding panel joints, blockwork control joints and podiums and floor movement joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are movement joints with split or torn sealant and leaks through car park deck joints onto the level below. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Collennan from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Travel to smaller places like Collennan is planned so the work is done in one trip where possible. Send photos, joint widths and details of the traffic first.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

Your questions answered
Is Collennan off your patch?
Not at all. Collennan is within our area. We work across every Scottish council area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Would you work within a site like Biggart Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
What timescale should we allow for resealing expansion joints?
The metres of joint, the access and the amount of removal decide it. As a guide, it typically takes a few hours to several weeks, depending on how many metres of joint there are and how much old sealant or filler needs removing.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
After the work
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
- Check joints after long freezing spells
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
- Brief car park operatives to protect joint lines during winter clearance
Grit is the slow enemy of a joint seal. Stones pressed into the bead by wheels or feet can puncture it and decks and floors suffer most. A routine sweep is the simplest protection.
A failed deck joint lets water straight through to the level below. That water often carries de-icing salts with it and it can affect the structure over time. Sealing the joint promptly stops it at source.
On site: what to expect
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Where we can, we combine work around Collennan with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- The right sealant goes in at the right depth, bonded to the two sides only.
- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

What sealant work can’t fix
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Leaks coming from the membrane rather than the joint seal
- Proprietary pre-formed expansion joint systems
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Collennan
Collennan sits close to the coast, within about 2 miles. Coastal yards and decks give their joints salt and wet weather to deal with, not just wheels, so it pays to keep them sealed. The west of Scotland, where Collennan is, gets more rain than the east. Rainwater through open yard and deck joints is a bigger issue here than in the drier east. Dry spells are used for the external joints.
Schools like Marr College often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. For an estate such as Biggart Hospital (4.8 miles south of Collennan), the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time.

What the job involves on each surface
Podium joints
Podiums take foot traffic, planters and weather. We choose a product that copes with feet, wheels and weather.
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Brick and block edges need careful preparation. Faces are prepared and primed wherever the sealant maker calls for it before the bead goes in.
How the quote is worked out
Before we quote, we look at:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- How accessible the joints are
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Which sealant the job calls for
