Why act early in Easterhouse
Combining joint work with other maintenance reduces set-up costs. Leaking joints need sealing now. We can split the scope into urgent and planned. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, so it’s worth renewing joints around Easterhouse before they leak.
A quote for movement joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.

Common questions from Easterhouse clients
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Lightburn Hospital, something you do?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Easterhouse off your patch?
No. Places such as Easterhouse are covered as much as the big towns. 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.
How long will the joint resealing take?
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 and phased work can stretch that to suit your site. We will confirm when each area can be used again.
Can you work on car park ramps and decks?
Yes. Tyre loads, grit and de-icing salts make these some of the hardest joints to keep sealed and broken edges are flagged before sealing.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
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.
How much does the work cost?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote.
Expansion joint sealing around Easterhouse: points for this area
The 3 miles around Easterhouse take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. That puts plenty of warehouse floors, service yards and car parks close by, all with joints under traffic. The west of Scotland, where Easterhouse is, gets more rain than the east. Open joints in car parks and yards let in more water than in drier areas. We wait for dry, workable days to seal them.
For an occupier at a site such as Cairnbrook Industrial Estate, which lies north-west of Easterhouse, the joints at loading doors and dock levellers typically see the hardest wear. At places like Glasgow Business Park, 0.6 miles to the south-west of Easterhouse, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on. For estates staff at a university like University of Strathclyde, which lies west of Easterhouse, building and paving joints are part of the planned maintenance list.

What affects the price in Easterhouse
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- How accessible the joints are
- Working within restricted access windows
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- When you need the work done
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
- Joints too narrow for the movement, which need redesigning by the engineer
If you are not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Blockwork control joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Brickwork movement joints
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Cladding panel joints
On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking a short visit for a handful of joints, or several days or more for a car park deck or long runs of facade joints. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Easterhouse is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We assess the joints on site or from photos, noting widths and how each has failed.
- You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
- 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.
- Depth is controlled with backing, the faces are primed where the maker calls for it, then the bead is laid and tooled.
- We check each joint with you, confirm the cure time and sign off under our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
