Floor joint sealing in Fort Augustus
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Floor joint sealing in Fort Augustus
We diagnose the floor first rather than guessing at a product: joint widths, whether the joints are still opening, what runs over them and how the edges have held up. That tells us whether semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant suits each run and the answer can differ from one zone to the next. If you’re dealing with old filler gone hard, cracked or loose and sealant pulled out along a truck route, we can help, on forklift and pallet-truck routes, retail and showroom floors and loading bays alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Fort Augustus first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Travel to smaller places like Fort Augustus is planned so the work is done in one trip where possible. Send photographs, joint widths and details of the traffic first.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Commercial clients in Fort Augustus

Common questions from Fort Augustus clients
What paperwork can you provide for a job in Fort Augustus?
We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Does a site in Fort Augustus have to shut while its joints are sealed?
In the majority of cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we’ll plan from there.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it.
Can the warehouse stay open while you work?
In the majority of cases, just the area being treated is coned off. Traffic returns to each zone once it has cured and the next zone follows.
Do you guarantee industrial floor joints?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we hold public liability insurance.
What happens if it’s left?
Waiting for a site-wide shutdown often means the joints keep getting worse. Phased in zones, the busiest routes can be treated first while the rest of the floor carries on. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, and for a smaller place like Fort Augustus, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

For a school such as Kilchuimen Academy, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. In and around Fort Augustus, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes.

Local landmarks in Fort Augustus
Locally, jobs take us to sites close to The Lovat Hotel and the streets around them. Green spaces nearby include Murligan Hill and Loch Uanagan.
What sets the cost
To price the job, we consider:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- How much existing material needs removing
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Sending details for a quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- The site address and postcode
- Any dates the work must fit around
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we will fill any gaps with a visit.
On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we are in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Fort Augustus. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
- Old fill and packed debris come out until both faces are sound.
- Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Agree which areas must stay open
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

What we can’t put right
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds
- A floor that is out of level for the racking or trucks
- Structural cracking in the slab
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Where we work in Fort Augustus
- Retail and showroom floors
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Loading bays
- Joints along racking aisles
- Construction joints
- Saw-cut induced joints
After the work
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
- Keep photographs of joints that look like they’re failing
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
- Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time if it keeps happening.
While the concrete edges are intact, it’s a filling job. After the edges go, repairs come into it and that takes longer and closes areas for longer.
