Why act early in Meikle Wartle
Doing joint resealing alongside other planned works can save on access. But joints already letting water in shouldn’t wait for a programme, as damage continues meanwhile. We can split the scope into urgent and planned. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Meikle Wartle, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Pricing movement joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Why appoint us
- A fixed quote before work starts
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- CHAS accredited
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces

On site: what to expect
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. Where we can, we combine work around Meikle Wartle with other jobs nearby. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- 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.
- Old sealant and filler are cut out and the joint faces cleaned back to sound material.
- Backing rod goes in at the right depth, or bond-breaker tape where the joint is shallow.
- 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
- Let building users know which areas are affected

Advice
Questions about Meikle Wartle
Is a hospital such as House Of Daviot Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Meikle Wartle too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Meikle Wartle are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
What happens if it rains on the day?
Outside work depends on conditions because a damp or frozen joint won’t take a proper bond. Indoor joints can typically carry on regardless.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
- Concrete or masonry repairs along the arrises
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Cladding panel joints
- Blockwork control joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Car park decks and ramps
What the job involves on each surface
Podium joints
Podiums take foot traffic, planters and weather. We choose a product that copes with feet, wheels and weather.
Joints between different materials
Different materials meeting at a joint rarely move in step. The product must bond to both substrates and cope with the movement.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Meikle Wartle
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
