General trades versus a specialist
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. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
What happens if it’s left?
Broken joints shake trucks, stock and operators alike. That means extra wear on wheels and a rougher ride for staff, adding costs nobody plans for. A properly filled joint smooths the route. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, and for a smaller place like Old Struan, a repair visit takes planning, so it’s better to act early.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

After the work
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
- Mention any aggressive cleaning regime at quote stage
- Hold traffic back until the product has cured
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
On younger slabs, a fine line can open down one side of a filled joint as the concrete keeps shrinking. It is a known trait of new floors and a later top-up deals with it.
Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Once the first piece is out, wheels drop further and hit harder, so it pays to act at the first signs.
What we’re called out for in Old Struan
Oil, laitance, dust and old cleaning chemicals build up inside joints. Without cutting back to sound, clean concrete the new filler can’t stay bonded.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Open saw cuts full of debris
- Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
- Filler that has parted from one face
- Soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints
In and around Old Struan, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes.
