Expansion joint sealing for Inverasdale sites
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How the quote is worked out
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- The total length or number of joints
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Working within restricted access windows
- The size and state of each joint
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.
What to include in your enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with what you know.
Expansion joint sealing in Inverasdale
Joints in car park decks and ramps are among the hardest-working in any building. Wheel loads, grit and de-icing salts attack the seal and the concrete either side. We reseal deck and ramp joints with a trafficable sealant chosen for the movement. If you’re dealing with water getting into the wall through a failed joint and expansion joints filled with dirt and stones, we can help. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Inverasdale? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.

Common questions from Inverasdale clients
Will our site in Inverasdale have to close for joint sealing?
Rarely. Work is phased around your operations. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Is a smaller place like Inverasdale outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Every Scottish council area is within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
What happens if it rains on the day?
A wet joint can’t be sealed properly so we’d rather rearrange than seal in the rain. The work is simply moved to the next suitable day.
How do I request a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Cracking or settlement that calls for an engineer’s assessment
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
- Leaks coming from the membrane rather than the joint seal
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Where floor joints take the most wear near Inverasdale
With the shore within about 1 mile, Inverasdale counts as a coastal location. Open joints in coastal car parks and yards let in salt-laden water as well as grit, so it pays to keep them sealed. Being in the west of Scotland, Inverasdale gets more rain than eastern areas. Open joints in external slabs take a lot of water. External sealing is booked for dry spells, with some give in the dates.
For floors and slabs around Inverasdale, the product is chosen for the traffic and the movement at each joint. A joint near Inverasdale that has lost its sealant lets in water and grit, and the edges suffer next; we will tell you if the edges need repairing first.

Different surfaces, different methods
Podium joints
Podium decks are exposed and often trafficked. A sealant suited to both traffic and exposure is used.
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Mortar snots and debris in the joint stop it working. Everything is raked out before backing and sealant go in.
Why it’s worth doing now in Inverasdale
A torn seal left alone typically gets worse. Grit and water fill the gap and the material either side breaks up, so a reseal turns into an edge repair as well. Resealing early keeps the work to sealant. For buildings near Inverasdale, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Send photos and we’ll quote for everything together.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Inverasdale. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- The first job is to check each joint: how wide it is, how it moves and why the old seal let go.
- A fixed quote follows, naming the sealant and its movement class.
- Old sealant and filler are cut out and the joint faces cleaned back to sound material, flagging any broken edges that need repair before sealing.
- We control the depth with backing rod or, in shallow joints, bond-breaker tape.
- Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, followed by the sealant, which is then tooled off.
- Finished joints are checked and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
