About our expansion joint sealing in Andover Down
Buildings and slabs are never completely still: temperature, moisture, shrinkage and loading all make materials grow and shrink. Movement joints are where that movement is absorbed and the seal across each one keeps out water and grit. We seal and reseal movement joints in walls, panels, decks and floors for buildings in Andover Down. We work on cladding panel joints, podiums and floor movement joints and precast concrete panel joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are expansion joints filled with dirt and stones and layers of sealant in a movement joint. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Andover Down it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
For a site near Andover Down, measurements and photographs up front mean one trip where possible, with the right materials on hand. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
Work we carry out in Hampshire comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will come back to it.

What else we do in Andover Down
What the job involves on each surface
Internal floor movement joints
Forklift and pallet-truck wheels break unsupported joint edges. The right filler or sealant for the traffic and movement protects them.
Car park decks and ramps
Water coming through deck joints is the usual first sign. We strip the old seal, prepare the edges and seal again flagging broken edges along the way.
For managing agents and facilities managers
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Andover Down: questions and answers
Can you work at a site such as Walworth Business Park, by Andover Down?
Yes, sites like Walworth Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Andover Down. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is a hospital such as Andover Hospital (Grounds) somewhere you can work?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Can weather delay the job?
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.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
What hours do you work?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we will schedule the work to suit. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
Can a joint be sealed if the edges are broken?
Broken arrises have to be put right before resealing, and we will point out where that’s the case. A bead on a broken edge soon lets go.
Do you work in Andover Down?
Yes. We cover Andover Down, and the simplest way to start is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing is typically the answer, not replacing the element. If the material either side is sound, a properly prepared reseal restores the joint. We’ll flag where edges need repair before sealing. For buildings around smaller places like Andover Down, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Include every elevation and deck joint in periodic inspections
- Note which joints were done, when, and with what
- Report split or peeling joint sealant early
- Look over external and deck joints after a hard winter
Snow ploughs and scrapers catch on joint lines. Raising blades over joints where possible protects the seal and a look at the joints after winter catches any damage.
An open joint fills with grit, and a joint full of grit can’t close. The edges then take the pressure and start to spall and the reseal becomes an edge repair as well. A sound seal keeps the joint working.
How a job runs
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. Rural sites near Andover Down may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- We start with photographs, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take.
- Every joint is cleared of the failed seal and any grit packed into it.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- The right sealant goes in at the right depth, bonded to the two sides only.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
