How the job changes by surface
Saw-cut induced joints
Sawn joints make up most of the joint length in a typical industrial floor. Each one is cleaned out and filled to the specified depth with a flush finish.
Isolation joints at walls and columns
We plan column and wall joints around racking and fixed plant so nothing has to move unexpectedly.
Floor joint sealing in New Byth, done properly
Open joints take a beating from forklift and pallet-truck wheels. Every pass chips at the bare concrete edge, and over time a neat cut turns into a ragged channel. A properly filled joint carries the wheel over and protects both arrises. It also smooths the route for drivers and stock. If you’re dealing with joint edges breaking up under truck wheels and unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit, we can put it right. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in New Byth, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Travel to smaller places like New Byth is planned so the work is done in one trip where possible. Photos, approximate widths and what uses the floor help us bring the right materials.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Questions we are asked in New Byth
Is a smaller place like New Byth outside your area?
Not at all. New Byth is within our area. We work across every Scottish council area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do we have to stop operations in New Byth while the 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.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Can the warehouse stay open while you work?
The work is phased. Areas are taken out of use a section at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Should floor joints be filled or sealed?
The answer comes from the traffic and the joint’s movement. Forklift routes generally call for a semi-rigid filler that holds the arrises, while joints that move more take a flexible sealant.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
It can be shrinkage, contamination on the joint faces or a product unsuited to the movement. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.
Is the floor joint work guaranteed?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we hold public liability insurance.

From enquiry to sign-off
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Jobs near New Byth are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- 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.
- 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.
Before we start on site
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Should maintenance staff do it?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Common problems we fix in New Byth
Small, hard wheels put a lot of load through a very small area. Crossing an open joint, the wheel drops and knocks the opposite arris and those knocks chip the edge apart bit by bit.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes
- Dock area joints that have failed first
- Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
- Joint fill separating from the concrete
Once a joint near New Byth opens up, grit and water get in and the edges start to break.
Questions to ask before you book
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?

- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?

What sealant work can’t fix
