Monifieth: questions and answers
Can you work at a site such as West Pitkerro Industrial Estate, by Monifieth?
Yes. Our area takes in Monifieth and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as West Pitkerro Industrial Estate included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Our building in Monifieth is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
Each product has its own cure time and cooler floors take longer. Phasing is planned with that in mind.
Can you phase floor joint work around operations?
The work is phased. Areas are taken out of use a section at a time around the site hours and access windows you give us.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
Separation normally comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We look at which it is before recommending anything.
Do you cover Monifieth?
Yes. We cover Monifieth, and the simplest way to start is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Floor joint sealing in Monifieth, done properly
Some joints reach us with their edges already broken. Filling against a crumbled arris won’t hold for long, so if the edges need repair before any filling, we’ll say so and leave that decision with you. If you have brittle joint filler breaking up and joint fill separating from the concrete, we can put it right, whatever the surface. For commercial sealant work in Monifieth, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
In smaller places such as Monifieth, the joints we are asked about sit in workshops, farm sheds, schools and halls. Slabs and yards take vehicles, rain and frost.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Monifieth
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Monifieth. 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. Being in the east of Scotland, Monifieth gets less rain than the west coast. Freezing weather and salt still attack open external joints. Sealing them before winter limits the damage.
For an occupier at a site such as West Pitkerro Industrial Estate (2.2 miles west of Monifieth), the joints at loading doors and dock levellers typically see the hardest wear. Hospital campuses such as Ashludie Hospital, less than half a mile north-east of Monifieth, grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old.
Monifieth is about 2 miles east of Broughty Ferry, in Angus. Any commercial site in Monifieth is covered. Across Angus, 65 places are covered, Monifieth among them. Sites around Dundee have their own page, about 6 miles away.

When to call us in Monifieth
Concrete slabs shrink as they dry out, and saw-cut joints give that shrinkage a planned place to crack. As the panels contract, the joints widen so a filler put in early may separate along one side.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Filler that has parted from one face
- Trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
Schools like Grange Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.
Before you book anyone
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS

What else we do in Monifieth
When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
- Worn screed or surface finishes
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Joints along racking aisles
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Loading bays
- Construction joints
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Retail and showroom floors
Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
- Clear packed debris from open joints regularly
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
- Plan for a top-up on newer floors
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time.
Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Each chip makes the drop deeper and the next impact harder, so it pays to act at the first signs.
On site: what to expect
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we’re cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Monifieth is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, so photographs, sizes and a full list matter. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- Each area is assessed for joint width, arris damage and the wheels that cross it.
- 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 sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
- Filler or sealant goes in to the right depth and is finished flush with the slab.
- We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.
Before we start on site
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Point out any areas we must not close
