What we are called out for in Tibbermore
Small, hard wheels put a lot of load through a very small area. Crossing an open joint, the wheel drops and knocks the opposite arris, and repeated impacts break the concrete away.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- A rough ride across broken joints
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
For buildings at a park such as Broxden Business Park, 2.1 miles east of Tibbermore, brick and panel movement joints are easy to forget until one leaks.

Floor joint sealing in Tibbermore, done properly
Sometimes the concrete either side of a joint has already spalled. Filling against a crumbled arris won’t hold for long, so if the edges need repair before any filling, we will say so and leave that decision with you. The enquiries we see most involve trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints and joint fill separating from the concrete, on joints along racking aisles, construction joints and retail and showroom floors. Whoever orders the work in Tibbermore, the brief is usually the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
For outside joints near Tibbermore, the Scottish weather sets the timetable: sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within its range. Inside slabs aren’t affected and can be scheduled around the occupier.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Floor joint sealing around Tibbermore: points for this area
Less than 3 miles from Tibbermore there are at least three named estates and business parks. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints. Tibbermore is in the east of Scotland, which is drier than the west. Freezing weather and salt still attack open external joints. Sealing them before winter limits the damage.
A healthcare site such as Murray Royal Hospital, 4.5 miles to the east of Tibbermore, depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day. At places like Inveralmond Industrial Estate, 2.6 miles to the north-east of Tibbermore, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on.

Leave it or put it right?

Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Cost factors for floor joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Phasing around occupants
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Any specification or named product
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to discuss it first.
How a job runs
Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Travel to smaller Scottish places like Tibbermore is planned so the job is finished in one visit where possible, 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.
- We vacuum each run and prime it if the chosen product requires a primer.
- Filler or sealant goes in to the right depth and is finished flush with the slab.
- Each phase reopens when the product is ready for wheels, then we start the next.
Getting the site ready
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Advice
Your questions answered
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Murray Royal Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Tibbermore too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across every Scottish council area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?
We check the edges as part of the survey. Damaged edges are flagged up front so the filling isn’t wasted.
Why has the filler pulled away from one side?
On newer slabs, the concrete keeps shrinking after the joints are filled and a stiff filler can separate down one side. It is usually dealt with by topping up.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Is colour matching possible?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.

Looking after the joints
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Keep photographs of joints that look like they’re failing
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
- Treat loading bay joints first if they’re failing
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
Once cured, the joints get cleaned along with the slab. Tell us about aggressive cleaning products or hot washing at quote stage so we choose something that tolerates them.
A broken joint on a main route is crossed by every truck on that route. Early treatment protects wheels, loads and drivers as much as the floor.
