Floor joint sealing in Balado, done properly
Some joints reach us with their edges already broken. Filling against a crumbled arris won’t hold for long, so if the edges need repair before any filling, we’ll say so and leave that decision with you. If you have drivers complaining about joints on a route and joint edges breaking up under truck wheels, we can help. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Balado, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Weather windows decide external joint work around a place like Balado: dry faces and the right temperature are essential, so dates have some give. Inside slabs aren’t affected and can be scheduled around the occupier.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Cost factors for floor joints
Before we quote, we look at:
- The size and state of each joint
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The total length or number of joints
- Location, for remote and island sites
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Any specification or named product
- The site address and postcode
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.
What else we do in Balado
Doing it in-house
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Commercial clients in Balado
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
How the job changes by surface
Semi-rigid joint fillers
A semi-rigid filler is stiff enough to hold the arrises up when wheels cross. They tolerate little movement so timing matters on newer slabs.
Retail and showroom floors
In retail, joints take trolleys, castors and cleaning machines rather than forklifts. We pick a filler or sealant to suit and the appearance is part of the brief.
What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Worn screed or surface finishes
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Joints along racking aisles
- Construction joints
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Loading bays
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Retail and showroom floors
Questions about Balado
Does a site in Balado have to shut while its joints are sealed?
In the majority of cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we will plan from there.
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Balado?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
How long will the new sealant last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
Is Balado in your area?
Yes. Balado is in our area and the rest of Perth and Kinross. For a quote, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Which sealant will you use?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Joints that move: notes for Balado
The east of Scotland, where Balado is, gets less rain than the west. Cold winters and gritting are hard on any yard or deck joint left open. Resealing before the cold months helps protect the edges.
Around Balado, each joint gets a filler or sealant matched to what crosses it and how much it moves. In a school such as Kinross High School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak.

On site: what to expect
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts. Where we can, we combine work around Balado with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- We agree the traffic routes and phasing with your site team.
- Any joints with broken edges are flagged before work starts.
- Failed material and debris are removed and the joint cleaned.
- The chosen filler or sealant goes in flush with the slab.
- Each area is handed back when ready for traffic.
Preparing the site
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Confirm the product named in the specification
