How a job runs
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For a building around Burley, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- 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, and flag anything that needs an engineer.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Expansion joint sealing in Burley, done properly
For movement joints in Burley, photographs and approximate lengths are the best start. Send them through our quote form, and we will arrange a site visit if needed before issuing a fixed quote. You can also ring 01277 525 020 or email us to talk the joints through. We work on blockwork control joints, cladding panel joints and brickwork movement joints, and what we’re called in for most is debris jammed in movement joints and arrises breaking up along floor joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Burley is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around smaller places such as Burley, floor joints are often in barns and farm buildings turned into workshops, stores and offices. Joints in those slabs take vehicles, trolleys and foot traffic, and need a filler or sealant to match.
Work we carry out in Hampshire comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

Quoting for work in Burley
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Phasing around occupants
- How much there is to seal
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Access and working height
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.
What we need to price the job
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- When you need the work done
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Any specification or named product
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
To get a fixed quote, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over. You can also send details through our quote form.

What else we do in Burley
Why deal with it now?
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. Older rural buildings around Burley move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

Questions about Burley
What paperwork can you provide for a job in Burley?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Does a site in Burley have to shut while its joints are sealed?
In most cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. We agree the sequence and timings with you before we start.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Can you work on car park ramps and decks?
Yes. Tell us how the car park is used and which areas must stay open.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Why do our movement joints keep failing?
Usually the joint is moving more than the sealant can take. We review the joint design as well as the sealant before pricing, rather than replacing like for like.
Warehouse floors and decks around Burley
Rainfall across the South East, Burley included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
For floors and slabs around Burley, the product is chosen for the traffic and the movement at each joint. For a school such as Burley Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Different surfaces, different methods
Internal floor movement joints
Wheeled traffic chips floor joint edges that aren’t supported. We match the product to the traffic and the movement, and tell you if edges need repairing first.
Podium joints
Podium decks are exposed and often trafficked. We choose a product that copes with feet, wheels and weather.
