Floor joint sealing for commercial buildings in Gracemount

A working floor can rarely be closed for days on end, so we phase the work aisle by aisle or bay by bay. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them so the rest of the operation keeps going. If you are dealing with old filler gone hard, cracked or loose and grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor, we can help, on retail and showroom floors, forklift and pallet-truck routes and joints along racking aisles alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Gracemount it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

In Scotland’s cities, buildings from car parks and malls to university and hospital estates rely on movement joints. Failed joints let water in, and repeated frost then works on the edges.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

What happens if it’s left?

Tape, or whatever sealant is in the stores cupboard, may look like a fix for a while. Neither is made to carry wheels and traffic soon pulls it out. The right filler or sealant saves doing it twice. In Gracemount, as across Scotland, rain finds any gap, and failed external joints let it into stone walls and around frames. Resealing promptly protects the stone and the interior.

The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Surface by surface

Isolation joints at walls and columns

Joints at walls and columns are often missed when floors are sealed and fill up with dirt. We record them with the rest of the floor joints.

Construction joints

Day joints sit where one section of slab was cast against another. They often see more movement than sawn joints, and that shapes the product choice.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Gracemount

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Gracemount can form part of a wider programme.

CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.

Where floor joints take the most wear near Gracemount

At least three named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of Gracemount. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints. The east of Scotland, where Gracemount is, gets less rain than the west. Freezing weather and salt still attack open external joints. Sealing them before winter limits the damage.

Warehouse floors on estates like Eldin Industrial Estate (to the south of Gracemount) carry pallet trucks and forklifts over every saw-cut joint. Campuses like University of Edinburgh - Little France Campus, 1.4 miles to the north-east of Gracemount, mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet. Retail centres such as Cameron Toll Shopping Centre, 1.5 miles north of Gracemount, have floors, service yards and car parks with joints under constant traffic.

Common questions from Gracemount clients

Must our site in Gracemount stop work while the joints are done?

Normally 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 will plan from there.

Can you work at a site such as Eldin Industrial Estate, by Gracemount?

Yes. Our area takes in Gracemount and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Eldin Industrial Estate included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

What guarantee do you give on joint filling?

Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later slab movement or damage from impacts.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.

Can you send site paperwork?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?

It can be shrinkage, contamination on the joint faces or a product unsuited to the movement. We look at which it is before recommending anything.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

How a job runs

Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. Give us the access times and building rules for your premises in Gracemount, and we’ll plan the work to suit, phased where areas need to stay in use.

  1. First comes a walk of the floor to record joint sizes, broken edges and traffic routes.
  2. You get a fixed quote with the product and the phasing set out.
  3. Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
  4. Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
  5. The chosen product is placed to its specified depth and trimmed level with the floor.
  6. The area is handed back once it has cured enough to take traffic.

Getting the site ready

  • Agree which areas must stay open
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Confirm the product named in the specification
