What we need to price the job
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Any specification or named product
- The type of building and who uses it

When to call us in Reston
Small, hard wheels put a lot of load through a very small area. Where a joint is open, the wheel dips and strikes the far edge, and repeated impacts break the concrete away.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Filler that has parted from one face
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
In and around Reston, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes.
Questions to ask before you book
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
Keeping the joints sound
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
- Stop forks and pallets being dragged across joints
- Mention any aggressive cleaning regime at quote stage
- Keep photos of joints that look like they’re failing
Problems inside the 12-month guarantee period are ours to put right. After that, a check before your busiest period keeps small repairs small.
A broken joint on a main route is crossed by every truck on that route. Sorting it early looks after your equipment as well as the slab.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

Reston: questions and answers
Is Reston off your patch?
Not at all. Reston is within our area. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Must our site in Reston stop work while the joints are done?
Rarely. Work is phased around your operations. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we’ll plan from there.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.
How do you choose the sealant?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
What guarantee do you give on joint filling?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work we do. It covers our workmanship, not later slab movement or damage from impacts.
How do we get a quote for floor joints?
A rough joint length, a few photos and a site plan are usually enough for a quick quote. For larger floors, a site visit is often best, and you can call 01277 525 020 or email the details over to arrange it.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
