About our expansion joint sealing in Broomer's Corner
Joints in car park decks and ramps are among the hardest-working in any building. Wheel loads, grit and de-icing salts attack the seal and the concrete either side. A sealant suited to traffic and the expected movement goes in. Site teams most often ask us about debris jammed in movement joints and car park joints leaking onto vehicles below, across car park decks and ramps, cladding panel joints and podiums and floor movement joints.

Why it’s worth doing now in Broomer's Corner
A torn seal left alone usually gets worse. Water and debris get in, the joint jams and the edges spall. Acting at the first split keeps the cost down. Halls, stores and units around places like Broomer's Corner may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Surface by surface
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Vertical movement joints in brick and block walls let the masonry grow and shrink. We use a sealant rated for the movement, normally low-modulus.
Podium joints
Podiums take foot traffic, planters and weather. We choose a product that copes with feet, wheels and weather.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Signs you need expansion joint sealing in Broomer's Corner
Repeated failure often traces back to the wrong product. Products not classed for the movement fail early. BS EN ISO 11600 classifies building sealants by movement capability, and specifications often refer to it.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Chipped joint edges on forklift routes
- Damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed
- Torn sealant in brick or block movement joints
- Layers of sealant in a movement joint
Schools such as William Penn School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook.

Where floor joints take the most wear near Broomer's Corner
Broomer's Corner is about 38 miles from central London. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Pondtail Farm (Business Park) (2.6 miles north-east of Broomer's Corner): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time. Business parks such as Crays Court (business park), 2 miles south of Broomer's Corner, have car parks, paved areas and long brick and panel elevations, all with movement joints.

Allow anything from part of a day to a couple of weeks, depending on joint lengths, widths and access. Timings are set out in the quote.
Is any job too small?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.

Advice
Aftercare for building managers
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
- Brief car park operatives to protect joint lines during winter clearance
- Keep traffic off new joints until the cure time is up
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
Keep wheels, feet and water off new joints until the sealant has cured. The time varies with product, conditions and joint depth. Keeping the area coned off until then avoids tyre marks and damage.
On a multi-storey car park, a failed joint normally shows up as a leak onto the deck underneath. That water often carries de-icing salts with it. Resealing early limits the damage.
