Questions about Drakemyre
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Woodland View, something you do?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Must our site in Drakemyre stop work while the joints are done?
In most cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
When can forklifts run over new joint filler?
Each product has its own cure time, and cold floors slow it down. We plan the phasing so that waiting time fits your operation.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work normally takes a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
About our floor joint sealing in Drakemyre
Across Drakemyre and the rest of North Ayrshire, it runs the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. A rough length of joint, photos of the worst areas and a site plan let us give a quick quote, or we can arrange a site visit. Most enquiries involve cracked and crumbling joint fill and joint edges breaking up under truck wheels, on retail and showroom floors, saw-cut induced joints and forklift and pallet-truck routes. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Drakemyre first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
For outside joints near Drakemyre, the Scottish weather sets the timetable: sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within its range, so dates have some give. Inside slabs aren’t affected and can be scheduled around the occupier.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Drakemyre as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Owners, agents and contractors
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
What happens if it’s left?
Broken joints shake trucks, stock and operators alike. That means extra wear on wheels and a rougher ride for staff, adding costs nobody plans for. A properly filled joint smooths the route. Around smaller places like Drakemyre, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

Floor joint sealing in Drakemyre: the local picture
Being in the west of Scotland, Drakemyre gets more rain than eastern areas. Rainwater through open yard and deck joints is a bigger issue here than in the drier east. Outside joints are sealed in dry spells, so dates have some give.
For an estate such as Woodland View, which lies south of Drakemyre, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time. In and around Drakemyre, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes.

Different surfaces, different methods
Retail and showroom floors
We plan shop-floor work so trading can continue. Give us your opening pattern and access windows and the phasing follows.
Saw-cut induced joints
Induced joints are sawn into a new slab to control where it cracks. They are narrow but open up as the panels shrink so trafficked runs need a filler that holds the arrises.
Doing it in-house
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Unstable slabs moving under traffic
- Worn screed or surface finishes
- Structural cracking in the slab
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Loading bays
- Construction joints
- Retail and showroom floors

Diagnose, treat, sign off
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking anything from a day for one loading bay to several days for a large floor, split into phases. Where we can, we combine work around Drakemyre with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- 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.
- We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
- The joint is filled to its specified depth and trimmed level.
- Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.
Preparing the site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Agree which areas must stay open
