After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Sweep decks, ramps and floors so grit doesn’t collect in the joints
- Check joints after long freezing spells
- Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
In warehouses, forklift and pallet-truck routes take the most wear. Keep racking feet and heavy point loads off joint lines, and report any chipped edges early.
An open joint fills with grit, and a joint full of grit can’t close. The arrises crack and break away under the load and the reseal becomes an edge repair as well. A sound seal keeps the joint working.
Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in Lands of Tour and Kirkland
Our movement joint work takes in walls, panels, decks and floors: vertical joints in brick and block facades, joints between precast or cladding panels, concrete slab and deck joints, ramps, podiums and internal floors. Every one calls for a sealant picked for its movement, exposure and traffic, and we’ll confirm the choice in the quote. We work on precast concrete panel joints, cladding panel joints and car park decks and ramps, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades and car park joints leaking onto vehicles below.

For outside joints near Lands of Tour and Kirkland, the Scottish weather sets the timetable: sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within its range. Inside slabs aren’t affected and can be scheduled around the occupier.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Leave it or put it right?
Doing joint resealing alongside other planned works can save on access. Leaking joints need sealing now. Urgent joints now, the rest later, is often the sensible plan. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Early resealing prevents it.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

Questions we are asked in Lands of Tour and Kirkland
Is Lands of Tour and Kirkland off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across every Scottish council area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is Bonnyton Industrial Estate, near Lands of Tour and Kirkland, within your area?
Yes, sites like Bonnyton Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Lands of Tour and Kirkland. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
What will the job cost?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. Send photographs or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
Are expansion joints and movement joints the same thing?
It’s a deliberate gap that lets the structure move without cracking. Many people call it an expansion joint and both need a flexible seal.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Is movement joint sealing guaranteed?
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.

Access to cladding joints is agreed before the price is fixed. Photos taken near the joints help us price accurately or a site visit fills the gaps.
Podium joints

Our process
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For a building near Lands of Tour and Kirkland, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
- Phasing is agreed so decks, floors or entrances can stay in use where needed.
- We strip the old sealant or filler and prepare each face until it’s sound and dry.
- Backing rod or bond-breaker sets the depth, primer goes on where specified, and the sealant is applied and tooled.
- Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Preparing the site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Move anything stored against the joints

Common problems we fix in Lands of Tour and Kirkland
On trafficked joints, wheels and salts do the damage. Tyres and wheels press on the edges and the sealant, while de-icing salts and grit attack the seal. A sealant that isn’t trafficable won’t last there.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Joints where the bead has lost adhesion
- Weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes
- Movement joints with split or torn sealant
- New sealant over old, now failing
Across sites such as Moorfield North Industrial Park, 2.1 miles to the south-west of Lands of Tour and Kirkland, floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working.

- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Their public liability cover
- How the existing material will be dealt with
When to bring in a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
