Our process
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes a short visit for a handful of joints, or several days or more for a car park deck or long runs of facade joints. Jobs near Fergushill are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- First, the joints are inspected for width, movement and the type of failure.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and its movement capability stated.
- The failed seal is removed and both faces are cleaned until sound and dry, and we tell you if any edges need repairing first.
- Backing rod goes in at the right depth, or bond-breaker tape where the joint is shallow.
- After any primer the maker requires, the bead is applied and tooled so it grips two sides only.
- Finished joints are checked and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Advice
Expansion joint sealing in Fergushill
Joints in car park decks and ramps are among the hardest-working in any building. Tyres load the edges, and de-icing salts and water work into any gap, so failed seals soon lead to leaks onto the level below and broken edges. We reseal deck and ramp joints with a trafficable sealant chosen for the movement, phasing bays so the car park can stay in use. If you are dealing with water getting into the wall through a failed joint and water dripping through deck or ramp joints, we can put it right, on podiums and floor movement joints, cladding panel joints and brickwork movement joints alike. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Fergushill, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Travel to smaller places like Fergushill is planned so the work is done in one trip where possible. Send photos, joint widths and details of the traffic first.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Questions we’re asked in Fergushill
Is West Byrehill Industrial Estate, near Fergushill, within your area?

Yes. We cover Fergushill, and you can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us to get started.
Can you work while the building is occupied?

Do you guarantee expansion joint work?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. If a joint we sealed fails inside the 12 months, let us know.
Can a joint be sealed if the edges are broken?
Sealant needs sound faces to bond to, so we’ll tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing. Where it’s visible beforehand, we’ll say so when we quote.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, as every site differs. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Fergushill
The west of Scotland, where Fergushill is, gets more rain than the east. External slab joints left open take plenty of rain. We wait for dry, workable days to seal them.
On industrial estates such as West Byrehill Industrial Estate, which lies west of Fergushill, saw-cut floor joints, loading bay slabs and yard joints take the heaviest traffic. Hospitals like Ayrshire Central Hospital, 1.7 miles south-west of Fergushill, have multi-storey or surface car parks whose joints carry vehicles round the clock. For a school such as Irvine Royal Academy, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.

Honest limits
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Proprietary pre-formed expansion joint systems
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Should maintenance staff do it?
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.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Why it’s worth doing now in Fergushill
Leaving a failed movement joint rarely stays a small problem. Grit and water fill the gap and the material either side breaks up. Resealing early keeps the work to sealant. Renewing every failing joint on one visit is the sensible approach for a place like Fergushill. Send photographs and we’ll quote for everything together.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.
