How floor joint sealing works in Midlothian
Across Midlothian, it runs the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. A rough length of joint, photos of the worst areas and a site plan let us give a quick quote, or we can arrange a site visit. Site teams most often ask us about old filler gone hard, cracked or loose and chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes, on construction joints, retail and showroom floors and loading bays.
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work typically takes anything from a day for one loading bay to several days for a large floor, split into phases.
- A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
- You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.
What affects the price in Midlothian
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
What you get with us
- Clear, fixed quotes

Estates, car parks and floors in Midlothian
Movement joints in brick, cladding panels and concrete appear on buildings all over Midlothian, from schools to offices and car parks. When they fail, water and grit get in and the edges start to break.
The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, but external sealing anywhere in Scotland needs a dry joint and the right temperature, with a little give in the programme for wet or frosty days. On the coastal side of Midlothian, sea-facing elevations usually show failed joints first, so they’re worth inspecting more often.
Bonnyrigg: Centres like Straiton Retail Park, 2.4 miles west of Bonnyrigg, have mall floors and service decks whose joints carry steady traffic. Office parks like Dalhousie Business Park (to the south-east of Bonnyrigg) have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day.
For managing agents and facilities managers
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Leave it or put it right?
Broken joints shake trucks, stock and operators alike. That means extra wear on wheels and a rougher ride for staff, adding costs nobody plans for. A properly filled joint smooths the route.
What your quote should include
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
Signs you need floor joint sealing
Oil, laitance, dust and old cleaning chemicals build up inside joints. Without cutting back to sound, clean concrete the new filler can’t stay bonded.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Worn screed or surface finishes
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
- Structural cracking in the slab
What affects the price in Midlothian
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Travel to remote or island sites
- How much there is to seal
A quote for floor joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- When you need the work done
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
To get a fixed quote, call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the site address and an outline of the work. You can also send details through our quote form.
FAQs: Midlothian
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
How do we get a quote for floor joints?
Send details through our quote form or by email, with the traffic on each area. We then send a fixed quote that shows the products and zones.
What happens if the joint edges are damaged?
Edge condition is recorded when we look at the floor. Where they have broken away, we will tell you before quoting the filling so the filling isn’t wasted.
When can forklifts run over new joint filler?
Each product has its own cure time, and cold floors slow it down. Phasing is planned with that in mind.
Do you work in Midlothian?
Yes. Sites across Midlothian are covered, and the same phone number covers every area.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
On newer slabs, the concrete keeps shrinking after the joints are filled and a stiff filler can separate down one side. It is typically dealt with by topping up.
