After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
- Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
- Hold traffic back until the product has cured
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
Walk the main truck routes every few months and look along the joint lines. Look for separation down one side, new chips in the arris and debris gathering, and photograph anything that changes.
Every vehicle on a busy aisle hits a damaged joint. Sorting it early looks after your equipment as well as the slab.
What sets the cost
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Phasing around occupants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Travel to remote or island sites
- The size and state of each joint
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Access details, including height
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
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 email the details over with what you know.
Floor joint sealing around Lochore: points for this area
At least three named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of Lochore. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest. The east of Scotland, where Lochore is, gets less rain than the west. Frost and winter road salt still work into open joints in car parks and yards. Sealing them before winter limits the damage.
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Duncan Business Park (1.3 miles south of Lochore): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time. Schools such as Lochgelly High School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook. On a site such as Crosshill Business Centre (less than half a mile south of Lochore), the movement joints are in car park slabs, paving and building elevations.
Lochore is about 6 miles south-west of Glenrothes, in Fife. We cover commercial sites throughout Lochore. We work across 132 places in Fife, from busy centres to rural villages. There’s a separate page for Edinburgh, roughly 15 miles from Lochore.
Work on floor joints is covered throughout KY5, whatever the building. Among the streets we cover are Scott Place, Loch Leven Terrace and Marmion Road, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. Just outside Lochore, we also work in Crosshill (1 mile south), Ballingry (1 mile north), Glencraig (1 mile south), Lochgelly (2 miles south) and Lumphinnans (3 miles south). Further afield, our area takes in Dunfermline (7 miles south-west), Kirkcaldy (6 miles east), Glenrothes (6 miles north-east), Leven (13 miles east), Cowdenbeath (4 miles south) and Dysart (8 miles east).
Near you in Lochore
The nearest railway station is Lochgelly station, roughly 1.6 miles south. Other landmarks nearby include Lochore Castle (0.6 miles south) and Michael Bruce Cottage Museum (3.9 miles north). Not far away are Loch Gelly and Benarty Hill.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Questions we’re asked in Lochore
Do we have to stop operations in Lochore while the joints are sealed?
In the majority of cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. We agree the sequence and timings with you before we start.
Is a smaller place like Lochore outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover the whole of Scotland. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
Each product has its own cure time and cooler floors take longer. We plan the phasing so that waiting time fits your operation.
Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?
Filling against broken edges doesn’t last. If the arrises have spalled, we will say they need repair before filling, so you can decide how to proceed.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Which is better for warehouse joints, filler or sealant?
We decide joint by joint. Where hard wheels cross, a semi-rigid filler is usually right, and movement joints or perimeters need something flexible. You will see the choice for each area in the quote.
When something else is needed
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Worn screed or surface finishes
- Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Diagnose, treat, sign off
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For work around Lochore, we aim for one trip, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We look at joint widths, edge condition and the traffic on each route.
- A fixed quote follows, listing the treatment for each area and the order of work.
- Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
- Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
- 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
