Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself typically takes a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For work around Colmonell, we aim for one trip, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- 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
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Move anything stored against the joints

Questions about Colmonell
Is a smaller place like Colmonell outside your area?
No. Places such as Colmonell are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Does a site in Colmonell have to shut while its joints are sealed?
Rarely. Work is phased around your operations. We agree the sequence and timings with you before we start.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
What happens if the joint edges are damaged?
A filler needs sound edges to grip. We will tell you if the joint edges need repairing first, so you can decide how to proceed.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes a day for smaller units, with bigger warehouse floors programmed over several visits. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Doing it in-house
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Looking after the joints
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Stop forks and pallets being dragged across joints
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
- Keep trucks off new joints until we say they’re ready
- Put loading bays at the top of the list
A routine walk of the busiest aisles shows how the joints are holding up. Look for separation down one side, new chips in the arris and debris gathering, and photograph anything that changes.
Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Each chip makes the drop deeper and the next impact harder so early treatment saves a lot of trouble.
How the job changes by surface
Construction joints
Where a day joint crosses a truck route, its edges take heavy punishment. We look at how much they are moving before choosing the treatment.
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Truck routes take traffic all day and the joints on them break down first. Semi-rigid fillers are widely used on these routes to hold the edges up.
What we are called out for in Colmonell
Small, hard wheels put a lot of load through a very small area. Crossing an open joint, the wheel drops and knocks the opposite arris, and repeated impacts break the concrete away.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Filler that has parted from one face
- Saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit
- Cracked and crumbling joint fill
- A rough ride across broken joints
Around Colmonell, each joint gets a filler or sealant matched to what crosses it and how much it moves.

Warehouse floors and decks around Colmonell
The sea is no more than about 3 miles from Colmonell. Near the sea, external slabs, ramps and decks see salt air and driven rain as well as their usual loads, and edges left open tend to break up faster. The west of Scotland, where Colmonell is, gets more rain than the east. Open joints in car parks and yards let in more water than in drier areas. Outside joints are sealed in dry spells, so dates have some give.
A joint near Colmonell that has lost its sealant lets in water and grit, and the edges suffer next.
