How we handle floor joint sealing in Lochluichart
Forklifts and pallet trucks are hard on open joints. Each crossing knocks the unsupported edge until a crisp saw cut becomes a wide, broken groove. A properly filled joint carries the wheel over and protects both arrises. It also smooths the route for drivers and stock. We work on construction joints, loading bays and forklift and pallet-truck routes, and what we are called in for most is dock area joints that have failed first and joint fill separating from the concrete. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Lochluichart from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
For floor or movement joints around smaller places like Lochluichart, we plan to finish in one visit where we can. Photos, approximate widths and what uses the floor help us bring the right materials.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Common problems we fix in Lochluichart
Soft sealant in a heavily trafficked joint gives the edges little support and the edges fail regardless. It can go the other way too: a rigid fill in a joint that is still opening cracks or debonds.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Joint fill separating from the concrete
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
- Chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes
Around Lochluichart, each joint gets a filler or sealant matched to what crosses it and how much it moves.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- The named product and why it was chosen
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds
- Slab panels that rock or move under load
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal

For managing agents and facilities managers
Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. One quote can cover more than one site, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Main aisles and cross routes carry the most wheel movements, so their joints wear fastest. A semi-rigid filler is common here because it supports the arrises under hard wheels.
Loading bays and dock areas
We typically work through dock areas a few bays at a time so goods in and out carry on. Your site hours and access windows set the order.

Once a joint near Lochluichart opens up, grit and water get in and the edges start to break; we will tell you if the edges need repairing first.

Your questions answered
Is a smaller place like Lochluichart outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do we have to stop operations in Lochluichart while the joints are sealed?
Normally not: we work in sections and hand each one back once it has cured. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Why has the filler pulled away from one side?
Separation typically comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
That depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
