About our expansion joint sealing in Bembridge
Floor movement joints in warehouses, retail and public buildings carry wheeled traffic. Without a sound filler, joint edges chip and spall under load. If the arrises are already broken, we’ll say so before sealing and phasing can keep areas working. If you have sealant peeling off one face of the joint and leaks through car park deck joints onto the level below, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Bembridge, the brief is normally the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Rural business units around smaller places such as Bembridge often have new slabs laid inside older buildings. Saw-cut and construction joints in those floors need the right filler or sealant for the forklifts and trolleys that use them.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

What happens if it’s left?
On a car park, resealing joints in phases keeps the deck open. Work can be planned so parts of the deck stay open. We agree phasing with you before work starts. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Bembridge
Bembridge sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. Near the sea, external slabs, ramps and decks see salt air and driven rain as well as their usual loads, so it pays to keep them sealed. Bembridge is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
Hospitals like Arthur Webster Memorial Hospital for Children (to the south-west of Bembridge) have multi-storey or surface car parks whose joints carry vehicles round the clock. Schools like Bembridge Church of England Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.
Bembridge is about 4 miles south-east of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight.

How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Joint width, depth and condition
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Access details, including height
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Crumbling edges that would give a new bead nothing sound to grip
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
- Changing the joint layout or spacing of a structure
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Blockwork control joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
Questions about Bembridge
Our building in Bembridge is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Is a smaller place like Bembridge outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What if the joint edges are damaged?
Sealant needs sound faces to bond to, so broken or crumbling edges have to be repaired first. Where it’s visible beforehand, we will say so when we quote.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
Can you quote from photographs?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.
What causes movement joint sealant to fail?
It depends on how the sealant has let go: tearing down the centre means too much movement, and lifting off one side means poor adhesion. Broken edges are a third possibility.
What exactly is a movement joint?
The terms overlap a great deal. A movement joint allows for expansion, contraction, shrinkage and loading, and the seal across it keeps water and debris out.
Different surfaces, different methods
Joints between different materials
Different materials meeting at a joint rarely move in step. We choose a sealant that grips both faces, with primer where specified.
Car park decks and ramps
Failed deck joints often show as leaks on the level below. We strip the old seal, prepare the edges and seal again.
When to bring in a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
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.
On site: what to expect
Inspect, seal, 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. Work in places the size of Bembridge is planned as a single visit where we can. Clear photos and measurements help us bring the right products.
- We look at the joints, their width and how they’ve failed.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and its movement capability stated.
- The failed seal is removed and both faces are cleaned until sound and dry.
- Closed-cell backing rod is set to depth, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints.
- After any primer the maker requires, the bead is applied and tooled so it grips two sides only.
- We check every joint before sign-off, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Point out any areas we must not close
