Questions about Smithstone
Is Smithstone off your patch?
No. Places such as Smithstone are covered as much as the big towns. We work across every Scottish council area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Victoria Memorial Cottage Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
What guarantee do you give on joint filling?
Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than structural movement or accidental damage.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
A route joint has to take repeated wheel strikes without breaking up. Wheel type and traffic level steer the product choice.
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Perimeter and column joints get forgotten, and they collect dust and debris. We record them with the rest of the floor joints.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Smithstone. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- First comes a walk of the floor to record joint sizes, broken edges and traffic routes.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and the phasing set out.
- 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.
- Filler or sealant goes in to the right depth and is finished flush with the slab.
- The area is handed back once it has cured enough to take traffic.
What we need from you
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Move anything stored against the joints

Advice
How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- How accessible the joints are
- The size and state of each joint
- Working within restricted access windows
- Location, for remote and island sites
A quote for floor joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Sending details for a quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Any specification or named product
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Smithstone?
Pallet-truck and forklift wheels concentrate weight on a tiny contact patch. Where a joint is open, the wheel dips and strikes the far edge, and repeated impacts break the concrete away.
Look out for the following:
- Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
- Loading bay joints breaking down
Hospital campuses such as Victoria Memorial Cottage Hospital (to the north-west of Smithstone) grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old.
What to look for in a quote
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Proof of insurance
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
What we can’t put right
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Slab panels that rock or move under load
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
- Worn screed or surface finishes
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Joints along racking aisles
- Retail and showroom floors
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
