About our floor joint sealing in Drumclog
Few warehouses can shut a whole floor while joints are done, so we phase the work aisle by aisle or bay by bay. Share your site hours and access windows and the programme is built around them, with goods still moving in the areas we aren’t in. If you have joint edges breaking up under truck wheels and sealant pulled out along a truck route, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Drumclog it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around smaller Scottish places like Drumclog, slabs needing attention are often in agricultural buildings, workshops, schools and hotels. Concrete slabs and yards there take vehicles and weather.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Your questions answered
Is Drumclog off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.

Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.

Related advice
Do you need floor joint sealing in Drumclog?
A slab keeps shrinking for a long time after it is cast, and the saw cuts are there so it cracks in straight, controlled lines. As the panels contract, the joints widen so a filler put in early may separate along one side.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- A rough ride across broken joints
- Brittle joint filler breaking up
- Joint edges breaking up under truck wheels
Around Drumclog, open joints collect water and debris, and the arrises are the next to go; we’ll tell you if the edges need repairing first.
What your quote should include
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid

Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

When to bring in a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
