About our expansion joint sealing in Noranside

Every structure moves a little, all the time: they expand in the heat, shrink as they dry, and shift under load. Movement joints are where that movement is absorbed, and the sealant in them keeps water and debris out. We seal and reseal movement joints in walls, panels, decks and floors for buildings in Noranside. The enquiries we see most involve previous reseals laid over old sealant and joints where the bead has lost adhesion, across precast concrete panel joints, blockwork control joints and cladding panel joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Noranside? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Travel to smaller places like Noranside is planned so the work is done in one trip where possible. Send photos, joint widths and details of the traffic first.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

From enquiry to sign-off

Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Noranside is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.

  1. We start with photographs, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
  2. We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
  3. Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
  4. Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
  5. A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
  6. Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Why deal with it now?

A failed joint seal doesn’t mean the slab, panel or wall needs replacing. If the material either side is sound, a properly prepared reseal restores the joint. If the edges have broken up, we will tell you they need repairing first. Around smaller places like Noranside, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.

Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Why us?

  • Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
  • Fully insured, including public liability cover
  • Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
  • A range of standard colours, depending on the product

Noranside: questions and answers

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Whitehills Hospital?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

Is a smaller place like Noranside outside your area?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Does the weather affect the work?

It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.

Do you offer coloured sealant?

It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.

What hours do you work?

Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.

Surface by surface

Joints between different materials

Different materials meeting at a joint rarely move in step. We choose a sealant that grips both faces.

Car park decks and ramps

Water coming through deck joints is the usual first sign. We strip the old seal, prepare the edges and seal again.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Noranside

Being in the east of Scotland, Noranside gets less rain than the west coast. Frost and winter road salt still work into open joints in car parks and yards. Sealing them in drier months limits winter damage.

For an estate such as Whitehills Hospital, 5.7 miles south of Noranside, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time. In and around Noranside, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes.

Noranside is about 6 miles north of Forfar, in Angus. We send applicators to Noranside for movement joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Our Angus coverage takes in 65 places, from busy centres to rural villages. We also cover Dundee, around 18 miles from Noranside.

We take on movement joints across the DD8 postcode area. Among the streets we cover are Oliver Avenue and Woodlands Avenue, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. Just outside Noranside, we also work in Tannadice (1 mile south), Aberlemno (4 miles south-east), Lunanhead (5 miles south), Forfar (6 miles south) and Padanaram (6 miles south-west). Nearby towns on our patch include Montrose (15 miles east), Kirriemuir (7 miles south-west), Brechin (8 miles east), Letham (8 miles south-east), Edzell (9 miles north-east) and Hillside (15 miles east).

Aftercare for building managers

For the best life from the joints:

  • Inspect movement joints alongside other routine building checks
  • Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
  • Clear dirt from joint lines during routine cleaning
  • Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant

Movement joints belong on the planned maintenance inspection list. A periodic look picks up tears and lifting before water gets in and long before edges start to break. If anything looks wrong, call 01277 525 020 or email us with photos.

Rain gets into walls through torn brick and block movement joints. It can surface inside as damp a long way from the joint. Resealing promptly prevents internal damage.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance 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.

What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.

What affects the price in Noranside

To price the job, we consider:

  • The total length or number of joints
  • The size and state of each joint
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Which sealant the job calls for

There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

Details that help us quote

Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:

  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
