- A wide shot and a close-up of the area

- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Expansion joint sealing in Kincraig
The seal is what lets a movement joint do its job. When the sealant splits or lets go, the gap fills with dirt and water. Dealt with early, it stays a sealant job rather than a concrete or masonry repair. If you’re dealing with water dripping through deck or ramp joints and debris jammed in movement joints, we can help. For commercial sealant work in Kincraig, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
In smaller places such as Kincraig, the joints we’re asked about sit in workshops, farm sheds, schools and halls. Concrete slabs and yards there take vehicles and weather.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Expansion joint sealing around Kincraig: how the place shapes the job
Kincraig is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Freezing weather and salt still attack open external joints. Resealing before the cold months helps protect the edges.
In and around Kincraig, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes. Large sites such as St Vincent's Hospital, 5.7 miles south-west of Kincraig, have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels.

After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Raise snow-clearing blades over deck joints where possible
- Report split or peeling joint sealant early
- Plan racking layouts so feet don’t land on a joint
- Record the sealant used and the date in the O&M file
Fresh joint sealant needs its full cure time before it takes traffic or water. The time varies with product, conditions and joint depth. Keeping the area coned off until then avoids tyre marks and damage.
An open joint fills with grit, and a joint full of grit can’t close. The arrises crack and break away under the load, turning a sealant job into a repair job. Keeping the seal sound avoids all of that.
On site: what to expect
Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. For a building near Kincraig, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- We look at the joints, their width and how they’ve failed.
- Next, we fix a price and confirm the sealant we propose for the movement.
- We strip out the old seal and prepare the faces, 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.
- Where the maker calls for primer, it’s applied first, then the bead goes in and is tooled to a concave finish.
- We check every joint before sign-off, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Different surfaces, different methods
Car park decks and ramps
Deck and ramp joints take tyre loads, grit and de-icing salts. We use a sealant made for wheel loads and the expected movement with bays done in phases so the car park keeps running.
Concrete and precast panel joints
Precast and concrete panel joints move daily. We use a sealant classed for the movement, laid over backing to depth.
FAQs: Kincraig
Is Kincraig too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Kincraig is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Will our site in Kincraig have to close for joint sealing?
In most cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we will plan from there.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Does the weather affect joint sealing?
Sealing onto a damp surface leads to adhesion failure so we’d rather rearrange than seal in the rain. We agree a revised date with you.
What guarantee do you give on joint sealing?
Our workmanship on movement joints carries a 12-month guarantee. Damage from later works or traffic loads outside the joint’s design isn’t a workmanship fault.
