Different surfaces, different methods
Construction joints
Day joints sit where one section of slab was cast against another. They can move more than saw cuts and that shapes the choice of filler or sealant.
Retail and showroom floors
Retail joints see trolleys, footfall and scrubber-driers. We pick a filler or sealant to suit and the appearance is part of the brief.

Cost factors for floor joints
These are the things that shape the price:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- How accessible the joints are
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- The size and state of each joint
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Details that help us quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Any specification or named product
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
Allandale: questions and answers
Would you work within a site like Forth Valley Royal Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Allandale too far out for you?
No. Places such as Allandale are covered as much as the big towns. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you use semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant on floor joints?
We decide joint by joint. Where hard wheels cross, a semi-rigid filler is typically right, and movement joints or perimeters need something flexible. You’ll see the choice for each area in the quote.
What information helps you price floor joint sealing?
Use our quote form, or email photos and a plan, with the traffic on each area. We then send a fixed quote with the product and phasing set out.
Is the floor joint work guaranteed?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work we do. It covers our workmanship, not later slab movement or damage from impacts.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
The wait is set by the product’s cure time and cooler floors take longer. Phasing is planned with that in mind.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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 easy to get wrong without experience.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Common problems we fix in Allandale
Small, hard wheels put a lot of load through a very small area. Where a joint is open, the wheel dips and strikes the far edge and those knocks chip the edge apart bit by bit.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
- A rough ride across broken joints
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
- Soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints
For an occupier at a site such as Chattan Industrial Estate (2 miles north-east of Allandale), the joints at loading doors and dock levellers usually see the hardest wear.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed

- Their public liability cover
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
Diagnose, treat, sign off
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Allandale. We’ll confirm the plan with the fixed quote.

Aftercare for building managers

- Hold traffic back until the product has cured

- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
If a joint we filled starts to break up within 12 months, tell us and we’ll arrange a look. After that, a check before your busiest period keeps small repairs small.
Every vehicle on a busy aisle hits a damaged joint. Early treatment protects wheels, loads and drivers as much as the floor.
