If you have debris jammed in movement joints and leaks through car park deck joints onto the level below, we can put it right, on cladding panel joints, precast concrete panel joints and car park decks and ramps alike.

When it isn’t the sealant
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
- A joint that has to be widened or re-detailed before it can work
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Blockwork control joints

- Car park decks and ramps
- Brickwork movement joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
Our process
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. If others near Broad Green need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- The first job is to check each joint: how wide it is, how it moves and why the old seal let go.
- A fixed quote follows, naming the sealant and its movement class.
- We strip out the old seal and prepare the faces, and we tell you if any edges need repairing first.
- Backing rod goes in at the right depth, or bond-breaker tape where the joint is shallow.
- Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, followed by the sealant, which is then tooled off.
- Each joint is inspected and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in

Why it’s worth doing now in Broad Green
Spot repairs can be useful on a tight budget. The remaining sealant is often close to failing too. We can price a patch and a full reseal side by side. For buildings around smaller places like Broad Green, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Your questions answered
Is Threshelfords Business Park, near Broad Green, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Broad Green, Threshelfords Business Park among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Will our site in Broad Green have to close for joint sealing?
In most cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
How long will the joint resealing take?
Expect a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases. Cure time before reopening is confirmed on the day.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Do the joint edges need to be sound before sealing?
Broken arrises have to be put right before resealing. Sealing over them leads to early failure.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day.
Different surfaces, different methods
Cladding panel joints
We confirm what access is in place before pricing. Close-up photographs help us judge the joints or a site visit fills the gaps.
Joints between different materials
Hybrid or MS polymer sealants bond to many substrates. We pick the product for the materials and the movement.
Where floor joints take the most wear near Broad Green
Rainfall across the South East, Broad Green included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints. Broad Green lies roughly 44 miles out from central London. The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift.
Across sites such as Gold Key Industrial Estate, 2.7 miles to the south-west of Broad Green, floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working. Schools like Honywood Community Science School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. Office parks like Threshelfords Business Park, 2.4 miles to the south of Broad Green, have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day.
Broad Green is about 6 miles south-east of Halstead, in Essex. Our applicators travel to Broad Green for work on movement joints. We work across 644 places in Essex, large and small. Sites around London have their own page, roughly 44 miles from Broad Green.
