Cost factors for floor joints
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- The size and state of each joint
- Access and working height
- Removal of failed or old sealant
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.

The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings

- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with what you know.

Warehouse floors and decks around Keir Mill
The east of Scotland, where Keir Mill is, gets less rain than the west. Cold winters and gritting are hard on any yard or deck joint left open. Resealing before the cold months helps protect the edges.
Schools like Wallace Hall Academy often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.

- We agree the traffic routes and phasing with your site team.
- We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
- Failed material and debris are removed and the joint cleaned.
- We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.

Common questions from Keir Mill clients
Is Keir Mill off your patch?
No. Places such as Keir Mill are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Would you work within a site like Thornhill Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
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 fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Can the warehouse stay open while you work?
In most cases, just the area being treated is coned off. Each zone reopens when the product can take traffic, then we move to the next.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
Each product has its own cure time, and cold floors slow it down. Phasing is planned with that in mind.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Slab panels that rock or move under load
- Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first
- Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work in Keir Mill
- Construction joints
- Loading bays
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Retail and showroom floors
- Joints along racking aisles
After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Clear packed debris from open joints regularly
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
- Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
- Keep photos of joints that look like they’re failing
We’ll give you a time before trucks can run over the new joints and it pays to stick to it. Cones or barriers stop the first driver cutting the corner.
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.

What we are called out for in Keir Mill
Joints near dock doors see colder air, rain blown in and water off vehicles, as well as the tightest turning loads. They are often the first on a site to break down.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Dock area joints that have failed first
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
- Sealant pulled out along a truck route
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
For an estate such as Thornhill Hospital (1.5 miles north-east of Keir Mill), the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time.
What to look for in a quote
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
