Expansion joint sealing for businesses in Daviot
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
After the work
For the best life from the joints:
- Reopen bays and walkways only after the stated cure time
- Brief car park operatives to protect joint lines during winter clearance
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
- Inspect movement joints alongside other routine building checks
Snow ploughs and scrapers catch on joint lines. Raising blades over joints where possible protects the seal.
On a multi-storey car park, a failed joint typically shows up as a leak onto the deck underneath. That water often carries de-icing salts with it. Sealing the joint promptly stops it at source.

What happens if it’s left?
Re-sealing with the same product that failed is often a false economy. If the joint is too narrow or the product wrong for the movement, it needs a different approach, and we will say so before quoting. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Daviot. Send photos and we will quote for everything together.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Daviot
Daviot is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Frost and de-icing salt still find their way into open external joints. Autumn is a sensible time to seal them.
For an estate such as House Of Daviot Hospital, under half a mile to the north-east of Daviot, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time. Around Daviot, each joint gets a filler or sealant matched to what crosses it and how much it moves.

Doing it in-house
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Honest limits
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We’ll tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Concrete or masonry repairs along the arrises
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Blockwork control joints

FAQs: Daviot
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as House Of Daviot Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Must our site in Daviot stop work while the joints are done?
Typically not: we work in sections and hand each one back once it has cured. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Do you cover Daviot?
Yes. We cover Daviot, and the simplest way to start is to ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
What will the job cost?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
What sealant do you use in movement joints?
Movement capability matters most as set out in BS EN ISO 11600. Where two different materials meet, a hybrid sealant can be the better choice.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
