About our floor joint sealing in Keills
Across Keills and the rest of Argyll and Bute, it runs the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Approximate joint lengths, a few photographs and a floor plan are enough for a quick quote, or we can arrange a site visit. If you are dealing with failing joints at loading bays and dock doors and soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints, we can put it right. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Keills from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Weather windows decide external joint work around a place like Keills: sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within its range, so dates have some give. Internal floors can be done whenever suits the site.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Common questions from Keills clients
Is a smaller place like Keills outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover the whole of Scotland. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Our building in Keills is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Will we need to close the floor?
The work is phased. Areas are taken out of use a section at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Can you send site paperwork?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
Why has the filler pulled away from one side?
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.
Is the floor joint work guaranteed?
Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than structural movement or accidental damage.
Different surfaces, different methods
Retail and showroom floors
In retail, joints take trolleys, castors and cleaning machines rather than forklifts. The product is chosen for that traffic and the finish matters as much as the performance.
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Perimeter and column joints get forgotten and fill up with dirt. We include them in the survey.
Our process
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. For work around Keills, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- First comes a walk of the floor to record joint sizes, broken edges and traffic routes.
- The quote fixes the price, names the filler or sealant and shows how the floor will be zoned.
- Each joint is cleared of old fill and dirt and taken back to clean, sound edges.
- Dust is extracted from the joint and primer applied where the manufacturer specifies it.
- The chosen product is placed to its specified depth and trimmed level with the floor.
- The area is handed back once it has cured enough to take traffic.
Preparing the site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
Request a quote
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we will fill any gaps with a visit.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Keills
With the shore within about 1 mile, Keills counts as a coastal location. Near the sea, external slabs, ramps and decks see salt air and driven rain as well as their usual loads, so a failed joint lets more in and the edges break up sooner. Keills is in the west of Scotland, the wetter side of the country. Rainwater through open yard and deck joints is a bigger issue here than in the drier east. External sealing is booked for dry spells, with some give in the dates.
Around Keills, each joint gets a filler or sealant matched to what crosses it and how much it moves. Around Keills, open joints collect water and debris, and the arrises are the next to go; we will tell you if the edges need repairing first.

What happens if it’s left?
Every jolt over a broken joint passes into the truck, the load and the driver. That means extra wear on wheels and a rougher ride for staff, which nobody budgets for. A properly filled joint smooths the route. Around smaller places like Keills, halls, stores and seasonal buildings may not be checked often, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

Looking after the joints
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Let us know what the floor is cleaned with
- Stop forks and pallets being dragged across joints
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Even a well-filled joint can be damaged by steel scraping along it.
Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. Once they have broken away, edge repair comes first and that takes longer and closes areas for longer.
What we can’t put right
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
