Our process
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself usually takes between a day and a number of days, set by the joint lengths, the edge condition and the phasing you need, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Jobs near Craigends are often grouped with others in the same area, 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.
- We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
- We clear each run back to clean concrete.
- We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
- You get a time for each zone to reopen.
Getting the site ready

- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Send your site hours and access windows

Advice
About our floor joint sealing in Craigends
Few warehouses can shut a whole floor while joints are done, so the work is split into zones and treated one area at a time. Share your site hours and access windows and the programme is built around them so the rest of the operation keeps going. We work on forklift and pallet-truck routes, retail and showroom floors and loading bays, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor and brittle joint filler breaking up.

Where floor joints take the most wear near Craigends
Being in the west of Scotland, Craigends gets more rain than eastern areas. 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. Craigends has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest.
For an estate such as Merchiston Hospital (1.2 miles south of Craigends), the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time. Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as St James Business Centre (2.2 miles south-east of Craigends): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time. If you manage units on an estate such as Mossedge Industrial Estate, which lies south-east of Craigends, the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch.

Common questions from Craigends clients
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Merchiston Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is a smaller place like Craigends outside your area?
No. Places such as Craigends are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
That depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Which is better for warehouse joints, filler or sealant?
The answer comes from the traffic and the joint’s movement. Trafficked joints on truck routes typically need a semi-rigid filler to support the edges and joints with more movement take a flexible sealant.
When to bring in a specialist
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Owners, agents and contractors
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
Pricing floor joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Loading bays and dock areas
We usually work through dock areas a few bays at a time so goods in and out carry on. Your site hours and access windows set the order.
Saw-cut induced joints
Saw cuts are made soon after the slab is cast so shrinkage cracks follow a line. They start narrow and widen as the concrete dries so trafficked runs need a filler that holds the arrises.
