Aftercare for building managers
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Put loading bays at the top of the list
- Plan for a top-up on newer floors
- Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
- Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote
A routine walk of the busiest aisles shows how the joints are holding up. Watch for filler pulling away from an edge, fresh chipping or grit collecting and keep photographs so changes are easy to compare.
While the concrete edges are intact, it’s a filling job. Once they have broken away, edge repair comes first, with more downtime and more disruption.
Floor joint sealing in Erbusaig
Sometimes the concrete either side of a joint has already spalled. Filling against a crumbled arris won’t hold for long, so if the edges need repair before any filling, we’ll say so and explain how it affects the programme. We work on saw-cut induced joints, retail and showroom floors and joints along racking aisles, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are flexible sealant torn out by wheels and loading bay joints breaking down. Whoever orders the work in Erbusaig, the brief is normally the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
For floor or movement joints around smaller places like Erbusaig, we plan to finish in one visit where we can. Photos, approximate widths and what uses the floor help us bring the right materials.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Common problems we fix in Erbusaig
Unfilled joints soon pack with grit, shrink-wrap scraps and pallet splinters. That debris is hard and levers at the edges as wheels pass so the arrises break sooner.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor
In and around Erbusaig, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes.

Floor joint sealing in Erbusaig: the local picture
Erbusaig is within about 1 mile of the coast. 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. Being in the west of Scotland, Erbusaig gets more rain than eastern areas. Rainwater through open yard and deck joints is a bigger issue here than in the drier east. We wait for dry, workable days to seal them.
Schools such as Lochalsh School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook.
Erbusaig is in Highland. Our applicators travel to Erbusaig for work on floor joints. We work across 256 places in Highland, from busy centres to rural villages.
Work on floor joints is covered throughout IV40. If your building is just outside Erbusaig, we cover Drumbuie (1 mile north-east), Kyle of Lochalsh (1 mile south), Kyleakin (2 miles south), Balmacara (3 miles east) and Plockton (4 miles north-east). Where a site is remote or on an island, travel and materials need planning ahead.

FAQs: Erbusaig
Does a site in Erbusaig have to shut while its joints are sealed?
Usually not: we work in sections and hand each one back once it has cured. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we’ll plan from there.
Does a coastal location like Erbusaig affect which sealant is used?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Will we need to close the floor?
We phase it. We work aisle by aisle or zone by zone so the rest of the floor stays in use around the site hours and access windows you give us.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
What information helps you price floor joint sealing?
Use our quote form, or email photos and a plan and tell us what runs on the floor. A fixed quote follows with the product and phasing set out.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Surface by surface
Construction joints
Day joints sit where one section of slab was cast against another. They can move more than saw cuts, and that shapes the product choice.
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane sealants suit floor joints with larger movement. They don’t hold the arrises up as firmly as a semi-rigid fill, so they suit lighter traffic or movement joints.
When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Slab panels that rock or move under load
- A floor that is out of level for the racking or trucks
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What affects the price in Erbusaig
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How accessible the joints are
- The size and state of each joint
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Phasing around occupants
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
Before you send an enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
From enquiry to sign-off
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work typically takes anything from a day for one loading bay to several days for a large floor, split into phases, and we clear our waste as we work. For a building near Erbusaig, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- 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.
- 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.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.
Preparing the site
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
Ask for a quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
