Expansion joint sealing near Angmering
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Surface by surface
Car park decks and ramps
Failed deck joints often show as leaks on the level below. The old seal comes out, the edges are prepared and the joint resealed flagging broken edges along the way.
Internal floor movement joints
Wheeled traffic chips floor joint edges that aren’t supported. The right filler or sealant for the traffic and movement protects them.
Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in Angmering
A movement joint only works while its seal does. Once it fails, water, grit and debris get in. Dealt with early, it stays a sealant job rather than a concrete or masonry repair. We work on brickwork movement joints, blockwork control joints and car park decks and ramps, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are rain penetration at brick or block movement joints and water dripping through deck or ramp joints. Searching for sealant specialists in Angmering? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Around places the size of Angmering, joints that need sealing tend to be in rural business units, farm buildings put to commercial use, schools and community buildings. Their slabs and walls still need movement joints that work.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

What else we do in Angmering
Maintenance after handover
For the best life from the joints:
- Plan racking layouts so feet don’t land on a joint
- Reopen bays and walkways only after the stated cure time
- Inspect exposed joints once the cold weather has passed
- Clear dirt from joint lines during routine cleaning
In warehouses, forklift and pallet-truck routes take the most wear. Keep racking feet and heavy point loads off joint lines, and report any chipped edges early.
Once debris packs a failed joint, the structure has nowhere to expand. The arrises crack and break away under the load. Keeping the seal sound avoids all of that.
What sets the cost
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- How accessible the joints are
- The total length or number of joints
- Location, for remote and island sites
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.
Details that help us quote
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
General trades versus a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Leaks coming from the membrane rather than the joint seal
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
- Changing the joint layout or spacing of a structure
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Questions we are asked in Angmering
Do you cover business parks and estates near Angmering, such as Rustington Trading Estate?
Yes. Our area takes in Angmering and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Rustington Trading Estate included. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Angmering too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Can a joint be sealed if the edges are broken?
A bond is only as strong as the material behind it, so we’ll tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing. We flag it at the quote stage where we can see it.
Can you work on car park ramps and decks?
Yes. We use a sealant designed for wheel loads and the expected movement.
What’s the difference between an expansion joint and a movement joint?
The general name is movement joint, and expansion joint is one common type. On site, people tend to use them interchangeably and the way they’re sealed is similar.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. 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.
Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Angmering
The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Angmering. Coastal yards and decks give their joints salt and wet weather to deal with, not just wheels, which is why split joints are worth sealing before the edges deteriorate. Central London is about 49 miles from Angmering. The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift.
If you manage units on an estate such as Rustington Trading Estate (1.3 miles south-west of Angmering), the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch. For an estate such as Zachary Merton Hospital (1.6 miles south-west of Angmering), the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time. Another example is The Vinery Industrial Estate (1.5 miles north-west of Angmering), where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers.
