How we handle expansion joint sealing in Evanton
A movement joint only works while its seal does. Once it fails, water, grit and debris get in. Dealt with early, it stays a sealant job rather than a concrete or masonry repair. If you have hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades and water getting into the wall through a failed joint, we can help. Most enquiries from Evanton start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Travel to smaller places like Evanton is planned so the work is done in one trip where possible. Photos, approximate widths and what uses the floor help us bring the right materials.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Quoting for work in Evanton
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Phasing around occupants
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- The postcode of the building
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
How a job runs
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work 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 our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Evanton. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We start with photographs, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Any broken arrises or friable edges are flagged before work goes further.
- A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Questions about Evanton
Do you cover business parks and estates near Evanton, such as Highland Deephaven Industrial Estate?
Yes. Our area takes in Evanton and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Highland Deephaven Industrial Estate included. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is a hospital such as Ross Memorial Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
In the majority of cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. 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. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Warehouse floors and decks around Evanton
Evanton sits close to the coast, within about 2 miles. External movement joints in car parks, ramps and yards near the coast take salt and wind-driven rain on top of traffic, and edges left open tend to break up faster. Evanton is on Scotland’s wetter western side. Open joints in car parks and yards let in more water than in drier areas. External sealing is booked for dry spells, with some give in the dates.
Large sites such as Ross Memorial Hospital (5.6 miles south-west of Evanton) have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels. At places like Evanton Industrial Estate, 1.5 miles north-east of Evanton, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on. If you manage units on an estate such as Highland Deephaven Industrial Estate, 1 mile to the east of Evanton, the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch.

How the job changes by surface
Joints between different materials
Hybrid or MS polymer sealants bond to many substrates. We pick the product for the materials and the movement.
Internal floor movement joints
Floor joints include saw-cut joints and construction joints. A semi-rigid filler is common in trafficked industrial floors, with a flexible sealant where movement is larger.
What happens if it’s left?
A torn seal left alone typically gets worse. Grit and water fill the gap and the material either side breaks up. Resealing early keeps the work to sealant. For buildings near Evanton, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photographs and we will quote for everything together.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Looking after the joints
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Brief car park operatives to protect joint lines during winter clearance
- Report split or peeling joint sealant early
- Note which joints were done, when, and with what
- Inspect exposed joints once the cold weather has passed
Movement joints belong on the planned maintenance inspection list. Early splits and edges starting to lift show up on a routine check, when they’re still cheap to deal with. Should you spot a problem, you can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and send a picture.
Floor joints with failed fillers break up quickly under wheels. Broken arrises jolt trucks, loads and drivers. Keeping the filler or sealant sound protects the floor.
