About our floor joint sealing in Broomhill
Concrete floors in warehouses and factories are cut into bays by saw-cut joints and construction joints, and every one of those joints is an exposed edge under hard wheels. Our job is to put the right filler or sealant into them for the loads and the movement they see so the edges are held up and debris can’t pack in. We work on retail and showroom floors, saw-cut induced joints and construction joints, and what we are called in for most is brittle joint filler breaking up and broken arrises where pallet trucks cross. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Broomhill, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around the edges of Scotland’s cities are warehouses, trade counters and distribution units, each with saw-cut and construction joints under forklifts and pallet trucks. The right filler or sealant, laid in phases, keeps them operating.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

After the work
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
- Keep trucks off new joints until we say they’re ready
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time.
Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. Once they have broken away, edge repair comes first, with more downtime and more disruption.
Questions we’re asked in Broomhill
Can you work at a site such as Garthdee Retail Park, by Broomhill?
Yes. We cover Broomhill and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Garthdee Retail Park. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Albyn 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.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
Young concrete carries on shrinking for a long time, so a semi-rigid filler can part from one face. A top-up normally puts it right.
Is colour matching possible?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
How long before trucks can use the joints?
Each product has its own cure time, and cold floors slow it down. Phasing is planned with that in mind.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Broomhill
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- A failing floor coating, which is a flooring contractor’s job
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.

On site: what to expect
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. University, hospital and office estates in Scotland’s cities have their own permits, inductions and sign-in rules. Pass on the site’s contractor rules when you get in touch.
- A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
- The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
- Old fill and packed debris come out until both faces are sound.
- Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
- The joint is filled to its specified depth and trimmed level.
- We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.
What we need from you
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Confirm the product named in the specification
Getting a fixed quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Joints around columns and along walls let the slab move without cracking against the structure. Something flexible normally suits them, not a stiff filler.
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Open route joints are hard on equipment and drivers. A filled joint lets wheels roll across and protects the floor.

What affects the price in Broomhill
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- How much there is to seal
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Any access equipment needed
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
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.
Before you send an enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- When you need the work done
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
Floors, slabs and movement joints in Broomhill
With the shore within about 3 miles, Broomhill counts as a coastal location. Open joints in coastal car parks and yards let in salt-laden water as well as grit, which is why split joints are worth sealing before the edges deteriorate. Being in the east of Scotland, Broomhill gets less rain than the west coast. Cold winters and gritting are hard on any yard or deck joint left open. Sealing them in drier months limits winter damage.
For estates staff at a university like Robert Gordon University, 0.9 miles south-west of Broomhill, building and paving joints are part of the planned maintenance list. In a school such as Albyn School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak. Another example is Kincorth Shopping Centre, 1.1 miles to the south-east of Broomhill, where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers.
