How we handle floor joint sealing in Lìonal
Floor joint sealing for us covers warehouse aisles, loading bays, production halls, retail floors and showroom slabs. Pricing depends on the length of joint, how worn the edges are and when we can get in, and the quote is fixed before we mobilise. If you have untidy open joints in a retail unit and joint edges breaking up under truck wheels, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Lìonal it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around smaller Scottish places like Lìonal, slabs needing attention are often in agricultural buildings, workshops, schools and hotels. Concrete slabs and yards there take vehicles and weather.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Saw-cut induced joints
Saw cuts are made soon after the slab is cast so shrinkage cracks follow a line. They start narrow and widen as the concrete dries so trafficked runs need a filler that holds the arrises.
Flexible floor sealants
Where joints move more, a flexible polyurethane floor sealant is often used. They don’t hold the arrises up as firmly as a semi-rigid fill, so they suit lighter traffic or movement joints.

Questions we are asked in Lìonal
Will you travel to Lìonal on the island?
Yes, Lìonal is within the area we cover. We cover the whole of Scotland. Island work is planned around ferry crossings and the weather, so photographs and a full list before we travel are essential.
Does a site in Lìonal have to shut while its joints are sealed?
In most cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
What information helps you price floor joint sealing?
Send details through our quote form or by email and tell us what runs on the floor. A fixed quote follows that shows the products and zones.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
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.
Can you send site paperwork?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Lìonal
Lìonal lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Near the sea, external slabs, ramps and decks see salt air and driven rain as well as their usual loads, and edges left open tend to break up faster. Being on an island, Lìonal means planning around ferry times as well as the weather. Joint widths, lengths and the traffic over them help us bring the right fillers and sealants.
For a school such as Lionel School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. In and around Lìonal, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes.

What affects the price in Lìonal
Before we quote, we look at:
- The product specified
- How accessible the joints are
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
Details that help us quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- When you need the work done
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The postcode of the building
- The type of building and who uses it
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us with what you know.
Aftercare for building managers
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
- Put loading bays at the top of the list
If a joint we filled starts to break up within 12 months, tell us and we will arrange a look. Beyond that, an inspection once or twice a year catches failing joints early.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. We can quote a programme that starts with the busiest areas and keeps on top of the rest.
What happens if it’s left?
Duct tape or a general builders’ sealant can seem to buy some time. None of it is designed for wheel loads, and it typically ends up dragged across the floor. A product chosen for the traffic and movement does the job once. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Lìonal, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

- We look at joint widths, edge condition and the traffic on each route.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and the phasing set out.
