About floor joint sealing in Perth and Kinross

Open joints take a beating from forklift and pallet-truck wheels. Every pass chips at the bare concrete edge until a crisp saw cut becomes a wide, broken groove. Filling the joint properly gives the edges back their support. It also smooths the route for drivers and stock. Most enquiries involve flexible sealant torn out by wheels and broken arrises where pallet trucks cross, on saw-cut induced joints, joints along racking aisles and forklift and pallet-truck routes.

Where the site stays busy, 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.

  1. A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
  2. The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
  3. Old fill and packed debris come out until both faces are sound.
  4. Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
  5. The joint is filled to its specified depth and trimmed level.
  6. Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.

What you will pay

Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Estates, car parks and floors in Perth and Kinross

Sites across Perth and Kinross rarely stop for joint work, so we work in phases and hand areas back as they cure.

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. Coastal places in Perth and Kinross often have hotels, guest houses and holiday accommodation with busy seasons, which makes the quieter months a good time for sealant work.

Perth: For a store at a site such as St Catherine's Retail Park, under half a mile east of Perth, the service yard and goods-in area are where joints break down first. Schools like Perth High School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.

Doing it in-house

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.

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Keeping the joints sound

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Keep trucks off new joints until we say they’re ready
  • Sweep debris out of open joints until they can be filled
  • Put loading bays at the top of the list
  • Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets

Once cured, the joints get cleaned along with the slab. Tell us about aggressive cleaning products or hot washing at quote stage so the product suits them.

Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out so nothing is left to fail.

What we’re called out for in Perth and Kinross

Older fills harden, shrink and crack with age especially under daily scrubbing and traffic. Once it has gone hard or come loose, it protects nothing.

Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:

  • Sealant pulled out along a truck route
  • Drivers complaining about joints on a route
  • Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
  • A gap opening alongside old joint filler

What affects the price in Perth and Kinross

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:

  • Phasing around occupants
  • The size and state of each joint
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • The total length or number of joints

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

What to include in your enquiry

However big the job, the same details help:

  • Your programme or deadline
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • The product your specification calls for
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings

A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.

CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.

Questions about Perth and Kinross

Are you CHAS accredited?

Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

Should floor joints be filled or sealed?

We decide joint by joint. Where hard wheels cross, a semi-rigid filler is normally right, and movement joints or perimeters need something flexible. You’ll see the choice for each area in the quote.

How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?

Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.

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.

What do you need from us to quote?

Approximate metres of joint, photos of typical and worst areas, and a floor plan let us give a quick quote. We can visit where that helps so speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us to set one up.

How long does a job like this take?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

Will we need to close the floor?

Typically only the zone we’re working in has to close. Each zone reopens when the product can take traffic, then we move to the next.
