When something else is needed
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Floor joint sealing for commercial buildings in Tannadice
Forklifts and pallet trucks are hard on open joints. Each crossing knocks the unsupported edge, and over time a neat cut turns into a ragged channel. Filling the joint properly gives the edges back their support. It also smooths the route for drivers and stock. We work on saw-cut induced joints, construction joints and joints along racking aisles, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor and a rough ride across broken joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Tannadice first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Travel to smaller places like Tannadice is planned so the work is done in one trip where possible. Photos, approximate widths and what uses the floor help us bring the right materials.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For a building near Tannadice, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
- The joint is filled to its specified depth and trimmed level.
- We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.
What we need from you
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Point out parking and an unloading spot

Advice
Common questions from Tannadice clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Whitehills 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.
Is Tannadice too far out for you?
No. Places such as Tannadice are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
What guarantee do you give on joint filling?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and the work is covered by public liability insurance.
Floor joint sealing in Tannadice: the local picture
Being in the east of Scotland, Tannadice gets less rain than the west coast. Frost and de-icing salt still find their way into open external joints. Resealing before the cold months helps protect the edges.
Hospitals like Whitehills Hospital, 4.3 miles to the south of Tannadice, have multi-storey or surface car parks whose joints carry vehicles round the clock. Around Tannadice, each joint gets a filler or sealant matched to what crosses it and how much it moves.
Tannadice is about 5 miles north of Forfar, in Angus. Anywhere in DD8, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. 65 places across Angus fall within our area, including Tannadice. For work in that direction, see our Dundee page.

Bigger towns within reach include Arbroath (15 miles south-east), Montrose (15 miles east), Kirriemuir (6 miles south-west), Brechin (8 miles east), Hunter's Town (15 miles south) and Letham (7 miles south-east).

Maintenance after handover
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
- Mention any aggressive cleaning regime at quote stage
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
Normal floor cleaning is fine once the product has cured. If you use strong chemicals or hot-water washing, mention it when we quote so we choose something that tolerates them.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out so nothing is left to fail.
What else we do in Tannadice
Different surfaces, different methods
Saw-cut induced joints
Induced joints are sawn into a new slab to control where it cracks. They start narrow and widen as the concrete dries, and on truck routes they need a filler that supports the edges.
Construction joints
Day joints vary, with or without armoured edges. If the edges look unsound, we’ll say so before any filling is done.
Why deal with it now?
Painting or coating straight over joints rarely lasts. The joints have to be filled or sealed as joints, whether or not the floor is coated. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Tannadice before they leak.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.
