Different surfaces, different methods

Loading bays and dock areas

Bays can be treated one or two at a time so goods in and out carry on. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.

Semi-rigid joint fillers

A semi-rigid filler is stiff enough to hold the arrises up when wheels cross. They allow only small movement, so they suit joints where most shrinkage has already happened.

Joints that move: notes for Eskdalemuir

The east of Scotland, where Eskdalemuir is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and de-icing salt still find their way into open external joints. Sealing them before winter limits the damage.

Around Eskdalemuir, open joints collect water and debris, and the arrises are the next to go; we will tell you if the edges need repairing first. Around Eskdalemuir, each joint gets a filler or sealant matched to what crosses it and how much it moves.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

How the quote is worked out

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • Access and working height

The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Sending details for a quote

The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:

  • When you need the work done
  • The site address and postcode
  • Access details, including height
  • The product your specification calls for

Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

How a job runs

On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself usually taking a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into. Where we can, we combine work around Eskdalemuir with other jobs nearby. Let us know if your dates have any give.

  1. We agree the traffic routes and phasing with your site team.
  2. We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
  3. We clear each run back to clean concrete.
  4. The chosen filler or sealant goes in flush with the slab.
  5. You get a time for each zone to reopen.

Preparing the site

  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance

Request a quote

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

Keeping the joints sound

Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:

  • Keep trucks off new joints until we say they’re ready
  • Clear packed debris from open joints regularly
  • Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
  • Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly

Keep traffic off fresh joints until the time we give you and it pays to stick to it. In a busy building, barriers keep early traffic away.

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.

FAQs: Eskdalemuir

Is a smaller place like Eskdalemuir outside your area?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Which documents can you supply for work in Eskdalemuir?

RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.

What guarantee do you give on joint filling?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and the work is covered by public liability insurance.

Should floor joints be filled or sealed?

We decide joint by joint. Hard wheels need edge support, which points to a semi-rigid filler, and movement joints or perimeters need something flexible. You will see the choice for each area in the quote.

Can weather delay the job?

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.

How many days will you need on site?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?

Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.

Honest limits

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:

  • Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first
  • Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
  • Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds

If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
