Leave it or put it right?
Some runs only need partial renewal or topping up. If old material is sound on one face and only a fine gap has opened, it may not all have to come out, and we will say which joints need what. Exposed buildings in Scotland take a lot of weather, so it’s worth renewing joints around Salsburgh before they leak.

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane floor sealants are available in a range of colours, and we will confirm what the specified product offers.
Loading bays and dock areas
At loading bays, product choice has to suit the loads, the temperature and the wet. Phasing is planned around your delivery schedule.
What sets the cost
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Phasing around occupants
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
What we need to price the job
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- The site address and postcode
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
To get a fixed quote, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.
Questions about Salsburgh
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Cleland Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Is Salsburgh too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Salsburgh is within our area. We work across every Scottish council area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Should floor joints be filled or sealed?
The answer comes from the traffic and the joint’s movement. Trafficked joints on truck routes usually need a semi-rigid filler to support the edges, while joints that move more take a flexible sealant.
Why has the filler pulled away from one side?
Separation normally comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
When can forklifts run over new joint filler?
The wait is set by the product’s cure time and cooler floors take longer. Phasing is planned with that in mind.
How do you choose the sealant?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
- A failing floor coating, which is a flooring contractor’s job
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Saw-cut induced joints

Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Salsburgh
Salsburgh is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Freezing weather and salt still attack open external joints. Autumn is a sensible time to seal them.
Large sites such as Cleland Hospital (3.1 miles south-west of Salsburgh) have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels. For an occupier at a site such as Newhouse Industrial Estate, which lies west of Salsburgh, the joints at loading doors and dock levellers normally see the hardest wear.
