What we are called out for in St David's
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 those knocks chip the edge apart bit by bit.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
- Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
- Saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit
- Trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints
For floors and slabs around St David's, the product is chosen for the traffic and the movement at each joint.

How we handle floor joint sealing in St David's
Most industrial slabs are divided into panels by saw-cut joints and construction joints, and each joint line is a weak edge that wheels run over all day. Our job is to put the right filler or sealant into them for the loads and the movement they see so the edges are held up and debris can’t pack in. We work on forklift and pallet-truck routes, construction joints and loading bays, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are brittle joint filler breaking up and a gap opening alongside old joint filler. Most enquiries from St David's start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Around smaller Scottish places like St David's, slabs needing attention are often in agricultural buildings, workshops, schools and hotels. Slabs and yards take vehicles, rain and frost.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Your questions answered
Is St David's off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Every Scottish council area is within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as St Margaret's Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?
Edge condition is recorded when we look at the floor. Damaged edges are flagged up front, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
Each product has its own cure time, and cold floors slow it down. We plan the phasing so that waiting time fits your operation.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
Should floor joints be filled or sealed?
There isn’t one answer for a whole floor. Where hard wheels cross, a semi-rigid filler is typically right and perimeter or movement joints need flexibility. You will see the choice for each area in the quote.

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in St David's can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Perth and Kinross.
Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
- Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
- Clear packed debris from open joints regularly
A routine walk of the busiest aisles shows how the joints are holding up. Watch for filler pulling away from an edge, fresh chipping or grit collecting and keep photographs so changes are easy to compare.
Grit in an open joint does damage every time a wheel crosses it. Filling it ends that cycle before it becomes a repair.
Slabs, ramps and loading bays in St David's
St David's is on Scotland’s drier eastern side. Frost and de-icing salt still find their way into open external joints. Resealing before the cold months helps protect the edges.
A healthcare site such as St Margaret's Hospital (to the south of St David's) depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day.

General trades versus a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Why it’s worth doing now in St David's
Holding off until the whole floor can close can take a long time. Zone by zone, the worst aisles can be dealt with now and the remainder follows on a plan that suits you. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Early resealing prevents it.

Our process
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. For work around St David's, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We look at joint widths, edge condition and the traffic on each route.
- The quote fixes the price, names the filler or sealant and shows how the floor will be zoned.
- We remove failed material and packed debris until sound concrete is exposed on both faces.
- Dust is extracted from the joint and primer applied where the manufacturer specifies it.
- We fill each joint to depth and finish it flush so wheels roll straight across.
- Each phase reopens when the product is ready for wheels, then we start the next.
Getting the site ready
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
