How we handle floor joint sealing in Dunkeld
We work on warehouse aisles, dock areas, factory floors, retail units and showrooms. Each job is priced from the metres of joint, their condition and the access windows we get, and the quote is fixed before we mobilise. We work on joints along racking aisles, construction joints and forklift and pallet-truck routes, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor and dock area joints that have failed first. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Dunkeld, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around smaller Scottish places like Dunkeld, slabs needing attention are often in agricultural buildings, workshops, schools and hotels. Slabs and yards take vehicles, rain and frost.
Work we carry out in Perth and Kinross comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

When it isn’t the sealant
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Unstable slabs moving under traffic
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
- A failing floor coating, which is a flooring contractor’s job
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Construction joints
- Joints along racking aisles
- Loading bays
- Retail and showroom floors
Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
- Photograph any joint that starts to chip
- Plan for a top-up on newer floors
- Hold traffic back until the product has cured
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out and keeps on top of the rest.
When to call us in Dunkeld
Pallet-truck and forklift wheels concentrate weight on a tiny contact patch. Where a joint is open, the wheel dips and strikes the far edge, and repeated impacts break the concrete away.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
- Drivers complaining about joints on a route
- Loading bay joints breaking down
Estates like Cally Industrial Estate (to the north of Dunkeld) combine warehouse slabs, yards and loading bays, all with joints under wheels.
Questions to ask before you book
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
What affects the price in Dunkeld
Before we quote, we look at:
- The total length or number of joints

Pricing floor joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.

On site: what to expect
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For work around Dunkeld, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.

Preparing the site
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Your questions answered
Is Dunkeld off your patch?
No. Places such as Dunkeld are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do we have to stop operations in Dunkeld while the joints are sealed?
Normally not: we work in sections and hand each one back once it has cured. We agree the sequence and timings with you before we start.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes between a day and a number of days, set by the joint lengths, the edge condition and the phasing you need. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
Is the floor joint work guaranteed?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we hold public liability insurance.
Do you repair broken joint edges?
Edge condition is recorded when we look at the floor. Damaged edges are flagged up front, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
How the job changes by surface
Construction joints
Some construction joints have steel edge protection, others are plain concrete. If the edges look unsound, we’ll say so before any filling is done.
Semi-rigid joint fillers
On industrial routes, a semi-rigid filler is often the right choice. They are installed to the depth the manufacturer specifies and finished flush.
